"Both players are technically flawless, play with the utmost musical intelligence and sensitivity, and are totally at one in all three works."

"Walton's sound is gorgeous, as is that of Daniel Grimwood, made evident in the rich and immediate Signum recording. Both players are technically flawless, play with the utmost musical intelligence and sensitivity, and are totally at one in all three works."
(Recording of the Month MusicWeb July 2012)

Jamie Walton and Daniel Grimwood continue their performance partnership with this recording of sonatas for cello and piano by Shostakovich, Britten and Prokofiev.
