Author:
Emily Beynon plays quite beautifully throughout. Her phrasing is natural, without exaggeration, her tone pure, dynamics well varied, intonation exemplary, and there is no heavy breathing (or at least not audible, anyway). West is not quite her equal, being a bit solid at times and in the Poulenc rushing the opening of the last movement. But this is a welcome recording
