IRR 'OUTSTANDING' AWARD 'Wiklund's concertos … stand up to the finest of competition. Whilst they are rooted in a late-Romantic style, there are also shades of Rachmaninov and Medtner, the exuberant virtuosity of York Bowen in his concertos, something of the bleakness of Sibelius and Stenhammar … Throughout all three works, it's Wiklund's melodic gifts that never wane … There is a huge amount to enjoy, with moments of real beauty and sophistication in every aspect of the music-making … Sturfält is certainly hard to fault: he has the measure of these concertos, and the refinement and good taste to ensure they never become overblown … This is a fabulous and very worthy addition to a series that shows no signs yet of diminishing returns: long may it continue' (International Record Review) '[Wiklund] really deserves this reappraisal: he has Rachmaninov's talent for big, sweeping statements and Grieg's way with a sweet melody. It's a winning combination, beautifully captured here by Martin Sturfält and the Helsingborg players under the sure direction of increasingly interesting violinist-turned-conductor Andrew Manze' (The Observer)
