Review:

"the romantic fervour of JB's approach is difficult to resist and anyone who thought Franck turgid or dull will be won over.. from the first touch of the E major Chorale, it is clear we are about to witness a faithful and unfussy recreation.. a truly huge acoustic combination of brilliant playing and a fine organ cannot fail to produce a thrill.."
(Gramophone)
