'The CD is one of my favourite recordings, beautifully 'placed' in the welcoming acoustic of All Saints' Church Tooting. The additional resolution of SACD yields a still more silky sound from the upper strings, and shines a brighter light on the image, while the multi-channel version literally envelopes you to impressive effect.' -- Gramophone
