"Wass's command of the young Liszt's idiom engages both with its poetry and virtuosity: he underscores the contrasts of mood and tempo in 'Lyon', for instance, to articulate the broader design in a way that's highly effective." (BBC Music)
"Ashley Wass brings panache, power and poise to the first book of Album d'un voyageur.... The rarely done Apparitions of 1834 also receive a welcome airing, Wass contrasting the lyrical sensibility and passion of the first piece with the whimsy of the second" (The Daily Telegraph)

"He relishes every opportunity for expressive nuance in "Le Lac de Wallenstadt"...and storms the final pages of "Vallee d'Obermann" as to the manner born...this is a distinguished offering, well recorded, of special interest and played with total musical commitment" (Gramophone Awards Issue 2010)
