Chandos Chamber Choir, Brhams' German Requiem with Piano Duet, 28 June 2008
'The duettists, Jonathan Lee and Gavin Roberts made a perfect combination. They obviously relished their task, eliciting wondrous sonorities and brilliance from the St Peter’s Kawai Grand, and responding to the changing moods in the music - at times calm and reflective; at other times passionate and intense - always in perfect synchronisation with the choir.' - Reviewed by Penny Abbott and Adrian Davis
