Amazon.co.uk Review
By the time of these February 1997 sessions, Tasmin Little had already revealed herself as a Delian of the first rank with her recordings of Violin and Double concertos (the latter with cellist Raphael Wallfisch and now reissued on Classics for Pleasure), and she forms an inspirational partnership here with Piers Lane. Not only do these eloquent performers consistently convey the full poetic rapture of this heartwarming music, even more crucially they never lose sight of its formidable organic thread. Little's memorable reading of the Third Sonata enjoys a particular authority in that, as a 13-year-old student, she was personally tutored on interpretative and stylistic matters by Delius's amanuensis Eric Fenby (whose involvement with this of all works could hardly be more profound). Of course, Fenby's own Unicorn-Kanchana versions of Snatas Nos. 1-3 with that much-missed fiddler Ralph Holmes carry a very special emotional frisson, but the intuitive gifts of Little and Lane are not in doubt. Even the very early B major sonata from 1892 (a piece apparently much admired by Grieg) springs to exuberant life on this occasion. The recordings are very well balanced and, fortunately, the generous church acoustic doesn't preclude the necessary intimacy. A truly wonderful release. --Andrew Achenbach

5 out of 5 stars A wonderful disk   November 8, 2005
Christopher J. Sharpe (Caracas, Venezuela)
13 out of 13 found this review helpful

A wonderful disk of little-known - some would say undeservedly neglected - pieces for those who love Delius, English pastoral music or French / English chamber music. Although there is a late summer feeling to them, this is not relaxing music: beneath the peaceful exterior these sonatas are brimming with nostalgia, passion and yearning. Being more intimate, they are also more raw than Delius' orchestral music, yet just as exuberant. Rich, rapturous, resplendent music, played with conviction as if the musicians had written it themselves. This is a CD that will repay careful listening. The ear soon adjusts to the wide dynamic range and large acoustic. One of my most-played CDs - highly recommended.
