"For many, this attractive release will
provide an ideal introduction to the world of Russian Romantic music for
solo harp, especially given the quality of harpist Danielle Perrett's
playing." Classical Source |

"Perrett. . . . . . has an extremely
busy career teaching, composing and arranging for and, of course,
performing on, her instrument. This perhaps explains the depth of
artistry, as well as superlative technique, in evidence here. The
tone and touch is continually varied, the colours suited to the
often-dark undertones of the music. The sweeping scales and
arpeggios, so idiomatic to the harp,, provide elegant under-pinnings to
the often-pronounced and generously-phrased melodic material, while a
very wide dynamic continuum is always deployed with great taste and
discretion." Classical Source |
