EDITOR'S CHOICE
"Petrova really catches the Walton concerto's improvisational manner, its gorgeous themes spun, as it were, in the playing of them. And listen to the way in which she tenderly muses in and around the opening theme when it so magically returns in the woodwind towards the close of the first movement."

CONCERTO CHOICE
"Liya Petrova’s new recording of Walton’s Violin Concerto grips you from the outset. Her phrasing of the opening material ideally combines singing tone with subtle inflections of pulse and dynamic, the phrasing supple and pleasingly coherent... Both these performances mark Petrova out as an exceptional talent."

5 STARS
"Playing with a radiant tone, she mastered all the demands of the Walton concerto, delivering her role with authority in a flourishing dialogue with the rich sounds of the orchestra."

WARMTH AND VIRTUOSITY UNDERPIN BOTH SONATA AND CONCERTO
"Liya Petrova performs the first section of the first movement with flair and dexterity, punching out the syncopations and, after the crispness and colour of the orchestral tutti, she plays with an easy, lyrical elasticity."
