The Times

Piers Adams virtuosity as a recorder player is almost legendary… it simply has to be heard to be believed.
MUSICAL OPINION

Beyond virtuosity into the realms of improbability.'
CLASSIC CD

It's not easy to make the recorder a sexy, extrovert instrument yet Adams' virtuosity is breathtaking and presented with unfettered showmanship.
THE DAILY TELEGRAPH

A jeu d'espirit, especially as played by the recorder virtuoso Piers Adams, who juggled with no fewer than five instruments, occasionally playing two at once, in this witty beautiful, action-packed piece... dazzling.
THE SUNDAY TIMES

Here is a performer whose success is surely guaranteed by a winning combination of technical genius, expert product marketing, and above all, the compelling power of a truly top-class entertainer over his audience.
THE RECORDER MAGAZINE

The most remarkable ambassador for the recorder I have ever heard... combines profound musicianship with an extrovert but never domineering musical personality, and a technique which every so often defies belief.
CD REVIEW

The fastest recorder player in the West.
BBC RADIO 3

Utterly unauthentic.
