“…the imaginative pianism of Hamish Brown, fearlessly responsive, vigorously probing.”

Ken Walton, The Scotsman

“James [Atkinson] and Hamish are a perfect pairing, two musicians perfectly attuned to each other.”

Tom McKinney, BBC Radio 3

“Whether from the vocal settings of the words themselves … or the imagery and vivid colours of the piano accompaniment, Taylor and Brown served their creators with trustful commitment and unfaltering musicality.”

Carol Main, The List

“…accompanied by a magnificent pearly sound from Hamish Brown on the piano, the sonority of which seemed to infect the voice in a total symbiosis.”

Dani Cortés Gil, Núvol

“…while Brown accompanied with expressionist vigour, transfiguring the piano part into something unexpectedly beautiful at the end.”

Simon Thompson, The Arts Desk

“…Brown skilfully kindled the multifarious blossom scents which reawaken the poet’s thoughts of youthful love, showing great delicacy and flexibility in the long piano interlude…”

Claire Seymour, Opera Today

“From the start Hamish had established that he was not so much an accompanist as a recital partner, his piano being an essential ‘voice’ in the whole.”

John Hargreaves, Shropshire Star

“…wonderfully accompanied by Hamish Brown on the piano who has already established himself as an international star accompanist…”

Hugh Kerr, Edinburgh Music Review

“Hamish Brown’s orchestration was delightfully inventive, utilising the small forces with imagination.”
