Awards and reviews

July 2016

What makes this set something special isn’t so much the music as the top-flight artistry of its performer. Janne Mertanen’s playing offers penetrating lyrical focus, a mesmerising range of keyboard colours, and an instinct for shaping one outwardly bland phrase after another in a way that always feels alive…[you cannot help thinking] Rachmaninov would have played like that.
4 out of 5 stars

April 2016

set down over a period of six years, this must have been a labour of love for the excellent Janne Mertanen…who proves a clean-fingered, imaginative and shapely exponent throughout…devoted Sibelians will, I think, enjoy dipping into this enterprising box
