Reviews

'[Sheppard’s] work is still not really appreciated at least on this side of the channel. But the programme presented here, sung with delight, should actually trigger a little Sheppard hype now.'

'Their Haydn is dazzlingly fresh, served by a perfect clarity of the discourse.'

'There are also songs by Grieg, Brahms and Schumann, which are testament to the rich mezzo timbre that distinguishes Morison’s maturing voice and interpretational artistry.'

'We are grateful to the musicians for giving a meticulous, sympathetic and lively account of this late set.'

'... her luxuriously timbred mezzo is capable of fine nuances that run through the performance like threads of gold ... More than a recommendation, a must! Personally, I can't get enough of this CD.'

'The sonorities that reach us seem to be the result of a study carried out at a desk in order to express the maximum acoustic and mechanical potential of the piano ... There is no question about the piano technique, which is impeccable.'

'It is direct, vivid, compelling ... This should be an exciting Tchaikovsky cycle from Zurich! '

'Their new album, built around "papa Haydn", is a resounding success.'

'Haydn is experiencing a renaissance through ensembles of the younger generation.'
