Reviews

• The style – cool and sometimes also radiant.........
  
  The Four Blues (1973) – all built on actual or imagined hymn sources – are serene and especially evocative.
  Haskins, American Record Guise, 01 December 2011
• ......a disc that is as entertaining and whimsical as it is varied in its depth and range.
  
  Best of all are Blue Rose and Bach in Blue, a hauntingly lovely treatment of Bach's C major Prelude No.1 from The Well-Tempered Clavier, As you would expect, the composer's playing is immaculate — and he also provides an illuminating booklet:
  altogether an impressive achievement.
