'Mondelci is equal to all Koechlin's demands (as usual with this composer, considerable) while Kathryn Stott matches him in fluency and accuracy.'
Gramophone

'Federico Mondelci has a warm, mellifluous tone which suits the predominantly lyrical nature of the repertoire perfectly and, partnered by the sensitive playing of Kathryn Stott, makes clear his obvious passion for these pieces.'
BBC Music Magazine

'Those perfect miniatures, superbly played by Federicao Mondelci with pianist Kathryn Stott… have an eloquence that is hauntingly potent.'
The Guardian

'He [Mondelci] rightly praises Kathryn Stott's empathy as accompanist… Chandos' warm, full acoustic captures this blend perfectly. Has the saxophone ever sounded more romantic?'
