Reviews
Hickox’s Tippett cycle goes from strength to strength.
BBC Music
This is Tippett firing on all cylinders, with a performance and recording to match.
Gramophone
Hickox’s Tippett cycle is becoming one of the musical events of the decade.
Classic CD
This is keen-eyed, thoroughly committed playing.What cannot be overstated is the mastery of Hickox’s imaginative reading… Chandos’s sound throughout possesses exciting realism.
