Reviews
Thwaites imbues the music with an aptly intimate poetry. Crucially, she knows how to sing a tune, as the abundance of attractive melodies, garlanded with Grainger’s rich pianistic dressing, gives her ample opportunity to demonstrate.
BBC Music Magazine
The major news in the 19th volumes of Chandos’s Grainger Edition is the first recording of the ‘Bridal Lullaby Ramble’' It’s a magnificent discovery, filled with over-ripe harmonies and elaborate ornamentation… this lushly recorded disc can be warmly recommended.
Fanfare
The advantage of this Chandos disc is that you can buy the other piano discs for a full complementary set. I certainly found it very enjoyable and fascinating to compare some of the different versions of the pieces. And I defy anyone not to be seduced by Grainger’s ‘ramble’ on Strauss’s final love duet from ‘Der Rosenkavalier’.
Music Web
There is as much to savour musically as there is in Ms Thwaites’s sympathetic and thoughtful playing of her compatriot’s works.
Gramophone
Highly persuasive advocacy…
Classic FM
Miss Thwaites seems to have Grainger in her blood. This collection is absolutely superb for her playing and sensitive voicing… I can not imagine a more beautiful piano sound. This is one CD all Delians and Graingerites should have, even if you have a dozen other Grainger piano CDs.
