GRAMOPHONE Critic's Choice Award 1999
' .. an exceptionally fine issue celebrating John McCabe's 60th birthday, that not only serves as a superb tribute to McCabe the composer, but also his prowess as a pianist and interpreter.' (Michael Stewart, Gramophone)
'The Haydn Variations (in effect a sonata, and a massive one, in variation form) is rather close to a masterpiece, I think, endlessly absorbing...' (Michael Oliver, Classic CD)
