“
He is one of those players who is almost as good to watch
as to listen to.
The range of volume, the subtle variations of colour and his
unfailing authority were mesmerising. While I wondered whether
his highly dramatised approach was always appropriate, his
musicality and panache carried his audience with him.”
Martin
