Awards and reviews

March 2018

Jalbert’s ‘Shrovetide Fair’ may not be the most shimmering or exuberant on disc, yet his scrupulous balancing of the accordion-like textures and rhythmic exactitude impress…Jalbert proves more extrovert and incisive in excerpts from Guido Agosti’s Firebird transcription. What colour and motoric momentum he brings to the ‘Danse infernale’…Better still are the 10 pieces that Prokofiev arranged from his ballet Romeo and Juliet.
