''We hope the listener will take from this recording a strong sense of nostalgia for a lost age as well as the tragedy and foreboding of the First World War ... but also an uplifting and mesmerising example of the unsung genius of this composer ... " cellist Jacqueline Thomas has told The Violin Channel.

"His understanding of the chamber music genre and of both strings and piano is captivating and delightful," she has said.
