(© Gramophone): "Peter Hill has conveyed...its astonishing palette of keyboard textures and colour, with remarkable success...sound is very fine indeed." "all that one could have hoped for and more...a Monet in music...colouring of the chords is quite magical." "the magnificent final chord takes a full minute to fade" (also short-listed for two awards)>
© Penguin Guide: Peter Hill prepared his music in Paris with the composer himself, and it shows...extraordinary music to splendid effect in utmost clarity"
Olivier Messiaen: "Beautiful technique, a true poet - I am a passionate admirer."
