“

'The performances are committed, the standouts being Jacob Fichert’s of Dance Maze: Variations, Simon Desbruslais’s of Duos (accompanied by Fichert) and the Fidelio Trio’s Divertissements, but in truth they are all first-rate. [...] Excellent clear sound from Resonus'

'This music is well worth exploring and the presentation here is first rate. Excellent background notes add much to the listening experience. Resonus is to be congratulated on its continuing series of releases from contemporary composers in the UK.'
Lark Reviews

'All the performers on the disc give strong performances, clearly engaged with dynamic and striking music.'
