"Critics choice 2017...Great music, great performances and great sound" Gramophone

 

"The ESO gave this opening instalment what was obviously a zinger of a performance...the composer, certainly, seemed dizzy with pleasure when he took his bow, and we civilians in the audience knew we had heard something special."  Musical Opinion (review of world premiere)

 

"This isn't a glib journey from darkness to light, the music’s emotional power such that you rarely reflect on whether Sawyers is writing tonally or not. Terrifically played too." The Arts Desk

 

"I can’t help but recommend this disc to all " MusicWeb International

 

"The whole thing incredibly moving." Classical Candor
