Music and Musicians April 1980
“Julian Lloyd Webber’s intelligent and lively artistic personality ensured some marvellously tough characterisation in Britten’s Cello Sonata. It now goes without saying that here is one of the most thoroughly-grounded, assured techniques among cellists. The pizzicato Scherzo was a tour-de-force of scarifying nerve, and those glissandos towards the end of the March were as firmly drawn and bitingly satirical as those on Rostropovich’s classic recording.”
