“Written in a very short period, these sonatas are not great Mendelssohn but there are some very attractive ideas and they are a real pleasure to play...Reg Elson plays them with care, love and seems to me to judge the tempi ideally with excellent choice of stops and colour.”

“Reg Elson’s love of this glorious music is reflected in his sense of structure, thoughtful registration and consistently neat, accurate playing. The North German voicing ensures clarity both in the contrapuntal and tutti sections, and it really is lovely to hear all the notes in the toccata style movements, which so often pass by in an unsatisfying blur.”
