“The BBC National Orchestra of Wales under the inspired baton of David Lloyd-Jones play these demanding scores with such glowing sophistication and confidence it seems scarcely believable they had no performing tradition to fall back on. No less remarkable is the sweet-toned advocacy of Philippe Graffin...a thoroughly worthwhile programme of impassioned Victorian delights.” --Classic FM Magazine, April 2011 ****
“Though neither work is a masterpiece, they're both well worth reviving, especially in such accomplished, sympathetic performances.” --Gramophone Magazine, April 2011

“Graffin plays superbly, with all the fire and tenderness required, and with glorious tone. The BBC National Orchestra of Wales is as attentive and sympathetic as one would expect with David Lloyd-Jones conducting, and the recording is well judged in terms of balance and perspective.” --International Record Review, March 2011
