CD ReviewsTribute to Grainger Matthew Elias | CA | 07/29/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "My star rating is in relation to the other Grainger Edition discs. This album has many tracks and all the most famous works of Grainger are on here, focusing mostly on his British work as opposed to Danish or his pieces that are totally original work. Thwaites really has a passion for Grainger as you can tell if you read some interviews with her. As Grainger pointed out it's hard to fit music which is so multifaceted into one instrument, even if there are 10 fingers working but Thwaites really takes advantage of the freedom of solo work and is wonderfully dynamic with volume and tempo and she adds so much character to these pieces, I especially love her Shepherd's Hey! On many pieces she uses some of Grainger's style: very powerful and almost frantic playing, but not too much. Listen to Grainger playing Molly on the Shore on piano and you'll know what I mean! This is one of the cornerstone discs of the Grainger Edition. To the Fore!"
