****
“Ashley Wass plays everything with exemplary command, relishing the music's sonority and engaging disarmingly with the nondescript smaller items.”
“Wass achieves the same wonders with Alwyn (1905-85) as he did earlier this year with Frank Bridge…. A charming disc.”
“It's a treat to be able to hail a new version of comparable charisma and temperament from Ashley Wass….With his immaculate touch, subtle range of colour and commanding technique, Wass draws every ounce of poetry from [the music].”

“Wass turns on the magic for this first instalment of Alwyn's piano music”
