Notes & Reviews:

'A thoughtfully planned disc with plenty of variety ... Expertly directed and stylishly played, this well-filled disc is highly recommended' (BBC Music Magazine)

'Universally full of spirit and charm ... both trumpeters are on fine form, sounding effortlessly relaxed and beautifully matched, with an enticing sweetness of tone. Recommended' (Gramophone)

'C'est un disque joyeux' (Répertoire, France)

'Holman, of course, is now a past master with this kind of repertoire and the performances of all this music are outstanding, unaffected rhythmically, intensely alive and with alert and responsive playing that is as bright and refreshing as the music itself. Excellent recording. Strongly recommended' (Fanfare, USA)

'Laird et Bennett sont familiers de ce répertoire et nous enchantent par leur facilité, leur sens des effets, leur opulence sonore' (Diapason, France)

'Had the English Orpheus been a trumpeter, this is how he might have played' (Early Music Review)
