Reviews
'Rarely has the precociousness of his talent been better demonstrated than on this new disc… the rarities, like the more familiar pieces, are played with unapologetic conviction. Penelope Thwaites, a Grainger advocate since well before the current boom, paints the music in bold strokes… a major contribution to the Grainger discography.'
Fanfare on CHAN 9895
…a wonderful album of Graingers solo piano music… her [Penelope Thwaitess] devotion to his art shines out…
BBC Radio 3 ‘Building a Library’
'There is a personal character to Grainger's music also, which gradually emerges as Grainger expert Penelope Thwaites journeys through the first decade of his composing life… the unique Grainger glow, which comes from wistful chromatic harmonies that are spiked with wit, is definitely there.'
BBC Music Magazine on CHAN 9895
