Reviews:
Writes Michael Church, Sunday Express:
"This lovely CD. . . presents a panorama of what this magnificent instrument can do.

Writes George Pratt, BBC Music Magazine, Five stars *****​:
. . . an ingeniously planned evening recital. . . the high spot is Booth’s own transcription of Bach’s solo violin Chaconne. . . a technical tour de force. . .

Writes David Hansell, Early Music Review:
. . . Colin Booth is a clear and deep thinker about music as well as a much respected player. . . Here all his talents combine to produce an original programme played with unfailing, if understated, taste and skill.  . . .The strongest of recommendations - it could become cult listening.
