"A first class evening of Chamber Music
- their performance of English Lutesongs demonstrated both perfect ensemble
and artistic maturity. Helen Sanderson was a masterful soloist, demonstrating
throughout a perfect blend of tone-colours and clarity of line ... flawless
playing."
Südkurier - Konstanz
"With his bright timbre, clarion diction and beautifully hung phrasing, Mark
Wilde proved himself a naturally expressive Britten tenor."
Financial Times 1996
"an immaculate, light textured English tenor."
The Independent 1997
"And the tenor Mark Wilde sings Ferrando with outstanding beauty and security:
a voice that's surely destined to be heard in major houses."
Independent on Sunday 1997
"The tenor gave a sensitive, highly expressive account of Schumann's 'Dichterliebe'
in the opening half, and confirmed his growing reputation as an interpreter
of the work of Benjamin Britten in the second."
Glasgow Herald 1997
"... the wide-ranging programme was matched by the range of human emotion
expressed not only by the clarity and assurance of Mark Wilde's singing, but
also by the sensitivity and technical expertise of Helen Sanderson's accompaniment
... a sparkling performance."
Galloway Gazette 1999
