‘The piano concerto, with Howard Shelley, a superb soloist, brings another revelatory performance …’
The Penguin Guide

‘The well-known Corelli Variations have never sounded quite as sumptuous and resonant as here … Howard Shelley is most convincing in the weighty piano-writing … full blooded sound to match.’
The Penguin Guide

‘Chandos’s recording copes wonderfully well with the multi-layered complexity of the score.’
Gramophone

'The Concerto' remains a landmark recording.'
International Piano Magazine

'Chandos, as usual, is a first-class producer, with committed and taut performances, and beautiful natural, yet dynamic, recordings.'
Fanfare
