alongside Ponsford’s wonderful precise and clear playing, the recording (by Raymond Fenton) is both vivid and full of presence a valuable new and worthwhile addition to the repertoire of seventeenth-century French organ music; an area of repertoire which this disc and its predecessor has genuinely made immediately accessible to a whole new audience through this splendid playing.
Marc Rochester - International Record Review - December 2013
The combination of instrument and the artist quicken high expectations. David Ponsford, much-Respected on early keyboard music, Has just published a definitive study on French Baroque organ music, and Brings to the directory has winning combination of flair and rigor . the instrument is well choosen:. Sonorities icts are well modereated and authoritative, and Ponsford coaxes unfrces and persuasive readings from it Phrasing and ornamentation are supple, and he usic Gives the ample space to breathe without slackening the rhythmic spring " ****
Magnus Williamson - Choir & Organ magazine - November / December 2013
These two volumes from Nimbus Alliance, NI 6213 and NI 6225 belong very much together, and with excellent recordings and performances I can’t recommend them too highly. The historic organ sound is perhaps an acquired taste if you are used to the more woolly and generous tones of later instruments, but if you really like your Couperin then you know in your heart of hearts that this is where his music really belongs. Once you’ve heard these I suspect you will soon be hooked, and after that there’s no turning back."
