Latest Reviews

Performance **** Recording ****

“… Part of the success of the concertos performance certainly lies in Michael McHale’s high-energy fingers, confidently shifting between glittering decorations and bravura solo spurts. Meanwhile, John Wilson and his BBC musicians are fully a match for Bennett’s nervous rhythms and the melodic urge that won’t be denied, for all the work’s surface ‘modernity’. It’s a really memorable and thoroughly exhilarating piece…”

Performance **** Recording ***

“… Roderick Williams is effortlessly boyish in the Beethoven, matched by Iain Burnside’s transparent sound. The Schubert begins relaxed, but emotions are soon ratcheted up. Burnside’s unhurried pace and clear pedalling reveals each detail of these beautifully crafted miniatures. Williams’s ‘Ständchen’ … offers a honey-smooth seducer, albeit with a heart of gold…I longed for just a few more rough edges in this beautifully polished recording.”

Natasha Loges – BBC Music magazine – July 2020

“This magnificent album sweeps through Gregson’s career of writing for symphonic brass, with a plethora of colours and stylistic influences. Glittering sound and production to boot,” ****

Freya Parr - BBC Music magazine (Brief Notes section) - July 2020

"... A heady selection of songs to intoxicate the senses; vivid storytelling and musicality." ****

Michael Beek - BBC Music magazine (Brief Notes section) - July 2020

"This imaginatively programmed trio of Pulitzer Prize-winning works makes for a nicely varied listen, performed with plenty of oomph, too." ****

Jeremy Pound - BBC Music magazine (Brief Notes section) - July 2020

"A superb programme of orchestral and vocal Zemlinsky, often revealing the composer in fraught mood. The playing combines passion with richness." ****

Jeremy Pound - BBC Music magazine (Brief Notes section) - July 2020

"A highly reflective, mournful set of songs and cycles interpreted with dramatic flair by Bevan and Clayton..." ****

Freya Parr - BBC Music magazine (Brief Notes section) - July 2020

"... a hugely enjoyable listen." ****

During the current unprecedented situation, Chandos Records continues to trade as normally as possible.
