"Throughout, le Grice's performances are superior, demonstrating ... instinctive understanding of this repertoire ... le Grice gives us ... a strong, forthright account of [Stanford's] D minor Postlude, Parry's Prelude on 'Martyrdom', beautifully paced and a vibrant performance of [Howells] Psalm Prelude Set 2 no.3 as well as a delightful prelude of his own"
