Classical Music 22nd October 2011
Gilchrist rejects the declamatory style of delivery currently fashionable...adopting instead a more subtle, understated and - in the long run - more moving approach...he makes a believably vulnerable journeyman...Tilbrook again proves an inspired, imaginative collaborator and the Potton Hall recording is superb.
