A lovely disc. I am a huge fan of the transcriptions of Bach's works by Siloti and was thrilled to make my acquaintance with this disc. I was slightly disappointed that Milne did not include all of or at least more of Siloti's transcriptions in this genre on this disc. The playing is generally highly refined and beautifully thought out but at times a touch reserved. The disc is well recorded and Milne's fine performances convince the listener that this repertoire deserves far more attention.

Great transcription and performance. Highly recommended. Goes well with coffee or wine and de-stressing. Some very delicate passages necessitate paying attention.
