“The Neave Trio has garnered much acclaim for its innovative programming…. its latest offering, Her Voice, examines the work of three pioneering female composers of the past 200 years … The selections are described as a celebration, and indeed they reveal vivid contrasts between the artistic worlds of three diverse and ground-breaking composers… the Neave Trio, playing superbly throughout, offer an expansive and thoroughly enjoyable performance.” ****

“…One could not wish for a better recording of the English romantic repertoire, with playing of outstanding quality from one of Britain’s great, innovative broadcasting orchestras.”

“…Brooks and David Pollock play with great clarity and directness. The performances are cannily varied with Pollock playing either a double-manual harpsichord, a 1999 replica of a Ruckers-Hemsch, or a continuo organ of 2007. This ensures that colours are never static, with, in the main, two harpsichord-accompanied sonatas followed by two organ-accompanied ones. Decoration is sparingly used. The Duo brings this music valuably to life and shows that Finger’s is a voice that deserves to be heard.”
