October 2007

The performance has plenty of passion and sensitivity, the slow introduction to the Finale sounding particularly magical.

November 2007

Hope is minutely responsive to every phrase of this music, making you wonder anew at its brilliance of invention. The outer movements dance, and his Andante has all the depth and subtlety of a great operatic aria, with remarkable richness in the alto register... The Octet is on a similarly elevated level, with Hope clearly the guiding light among his COE colleagues, but never becoming overbearing.
