"The Hallé forces, Bostridge, Williams and Collon give committed and assured performances."
- Fiona Maddocks, The Guardian
"Ian Bostridge and Roderick Williams are sensitive exponents of this unlikely yet thought-provoking piece, while Nicholas Collon secures a committed response in both of the large-scale works. The composer’s own notes succinctly and informatively fill out the context."
- Richard Whitehouse, Gramophone
Nicholas Collon leads the Hallé and Hallé Choirs in a beautiful reading of Colin Matthews' No Man's Land, a moving tribute to conductor Richard Hickox. The poignant music is realized hauntingly by the Hallé musicians and famed baritone Roderick WIlliams performs his solos with passion and assuredness.
