"[This music] requires fine technique, especially if it’s to be put across with flair and conviction. It’s hard to think it could be better served than by Daniel Cook. He has chosen to record the music on the Harrison and Harrison organ of St. Mary's Redcliffe, Bristol... It seems to me that Daniel Cook revels in the possibilities of the instrument and exploits it to the full so as to give colourful and often exciting performances... The organ has been recorded with great skill and understanding by Neil Collier and makes its presence felt at all dynamic levels."
- John Quinn, MusicWeb International
"Priory here continues its laudable and apparently never-ending mission to lead us along the byways of English organs and English organ music. The Harrison and Harrison Organ at St. Mary, Redcliffe is the perfect vehicle for this music. The opening piece is the high spot of the CD and it is beautifully recorded too. Cook's sensitive, atmospheric readings do as much as the St. Mary's Redcliffe organ to show Dyson's work in the best light."
- Barnaby Page, Organists Review
Daniel Cook, sub-organist of Westminster Abbey, continues his survey of British organ pieces with this first complete recorded edition of Sir George Dyson's organ works. Playing a Harrison and Harrison instrument, Cook's insightful readings of these little-known works from one of Britain's foremost composers of the 20th century marks an important contribution to the Dyson discography.
