"... (Walton's) partnership with Grimwood is a true meeting of minds."
- MusicWeb International
"... strongly argued and musically sophisticated readings which demand serious and attentive listening ... a valuable addition to the current catalogue. Recommended."
- International Record Review
Two works from very different composers: Chopin’s pieces for cello were few and far between, but these two bookend his compositional life. In contrast, Saint-Saëns published a great many works for the cello, as well as works in almost every genre of the classical canon, with the Cello Sonata No. 2 composed during his travels in Algeria. Cellist Jamie Walton and pianist Daniel Grimwood are performers who have proven themselves on stage and in the studio to be formidable and enthralling interpreters of this repertoire.
