'Shelley… is outstanding in this music, synthesizing the classical and romantic elements perfectly.A natural Mozartian, he allies his poise and clarity to a fearless technique, and absorbs Hummels most ostentatious demands into the musical fabric, giving the decorative solo part the necessary grace and piquancy.'
Gramophone 'Critics' Choice' of January 2000

'With Shelley at the helm, the Piano Concerto emerges with an almost Mozartian freshness and elegance. Quite literally there's never a dull moment.'
Classics CD

'…Shelley's technical control is outstanding.'
BBC Music Magazine
