“This is a sublime and vigorously enthralling disc of folk-inspired works from one of the most important living composers… the beauty of the playing and the music are never in doubt.” - Christopher Dingle (BBC Music Magazine)

“Often euphonious music - an ideal introduction to one of Britain's most important avant-gardists.” - Andy Hamilton (Classic CD)

“ a programme of subtle and absorbing sounds. Michael Finnissy's piano style…[transforms] folkish melodies into evocative vistas of colour.” - David Breckbill (BBC Music Magazine) “

[Folklore II] is elusive music, and the other folk-based pieces are useful primers for the greater sophistication and subtlety of the larger works.” - Andrew Clements (The Guardian)

“This is the first of several Finnissy discs planned by Metier and a fair taster of his sound-world and aesthetic outlook.” - Paul Driver (The Sunday Times)
