'In Yates's earlier Chandos collection of Elizabethan music [CHAN 0574] I praised here ability to project musical architecture and virtuosity in her performance of The Bells by Byrd. I like her playing even more in this new release, where she plays two different virginals by David Evans and Alan Gotto. These readings have a private air about them, as if we are eaves-dropping on intimate music-making.'

American Record Guide

'Sophie Yates finds the right manner far all these works, the small and unassuming, the intricate and emotionally charged. Her sense of rhythmic flexibility is subtle. Her articulation of simultaneous musical strands - no mean feat even in the simplest of works performed on the virginal - is a delight.'
