This group of short Welsh folksongs never outstays its welcome, the composer’s inventive powers using the instruments to great effect… Stephen Goss brings to each piece a keen musical intelligence that does not preclude the warmth of an instinctual response. I believe that these qualities make him one of the most consistently interesting composers in Britain today.  Classical Guitar Magazine.
