Critical Acclaim
»His inclusion, though, of additional repertoire with a focus largely on nature, does allow him to stand out among the plethora of Four Seasons. Faulisi’s accounts of Matthias Spindler’s skilful arrangements, sandwiched between each concerto, make for more agreeable listening. He gives a heartfelt reading of the lyrical Catalan melody El cant dels ocells, made famous by Casals, and exhibits lyrical sensibility in Tchaikovsky’s melancholic ‘October’, even if a more relaxed rendition of Lili Boulanger’s Nocturne might be desirable.«
