TWO SOMM releases have been named MusicWeb International Recordings of the Year! We also have to share this wonderful quote from critic Nick Barnard: “I am glad to be able to include a disc from SOMM again this year – their recordings, repertoire and performances are always a delight.”
See Nick’s Full Review“Mark Bebbington has an astonishingly wide range of repertoire but his recordings of British music are a particular delight. A well-thought out programme crowned by the finest version of the early E flat sonata (which became Symphony No.1) I have ever heard.”
—Nick Barnard, MusicWeb International
See Michael’s Full Review“Donohoe presents the slow movement of Sonata 17, K570, thoughtfully savoured. A song whose every note and feeling is placed with care and you witness how the rhythms, harmonies and structure contribute to the whole experience. Then relief: a second episode warmer, smoother, robust and exquisite in turn; a coda both dignified and affectionate.”
—Michael Greenhalgh, MusicWeb International
