“… If you want just one Castelnuovo-Tedesco selection, I would definitely choose Bebbington.”
Calum MacDonald, International Piano May/June 2004
“I can’t speak too highly about Bebbington’s strong, big-boned playing and unerring ear for how these pieces should go. Highly recommended. 10/10”
Jed Distler, Classics Today 2004
“Mark Bebbington plays the works with just the right sense of unfathomable antiquity and grandeur. He is truly a remarkable pianist, with an immense range of colour, a subtle use of the pedal, and an ability to project the composer’s immense climaxes with clarity as well as power.”
Ivan Hewett, The Times, February 2004
‘“…..such a sensitive touch and sense of tonal shading; recorded in Birmingham just over a year ago. A most nourishing musical byway.”
Rob Cowan, The Cowan Collection, BBC Radio 3, January 2004
“[Castelnuovo-Tedesco’s] music is full of natural warmth and strength, qualities which Mark Bebbington’s excellent technical command and musicianship constantly reveal… producing some ravishing tonal qualities.”
Robert Matthew-Walker, International Record Review, Dec 2003
“Compelling challenging piano music, and a performer fully up to the task.”
