"Hummel's homage to his master is touchingly blended with his own profound feel for the piano, thanks to the flair and intensity of the award-winning Madoka Inui."
-- Anthony Holden, The Observer, December 11, 2005

"Do I detect a revival in the fortunes of Johann Nepomuk Hummel (1778-1837), pupil of Mozart and my candidate for the most unfairly underrated of composers? With more to come next month from another label, Naxos follows its violin concerto and cello sonata with this sparkling collection of fantasies and bagatelles, adding gems such as the Recollections of Paganini and the Fantasina on Non più Andrai to the world premiere recording of his Fantasie in G Minor, Op 123.
Hummel's homage to his master is touchingly blended with his own profound feel for the piano, thanks to the flair and intensity of the award-winning Madoka Inui."
