"Now in his mid-forties [Florian Boesch] is a well-established singer of both opera and lieder throughout Europe, collaborating with the most prominent conductors. The rapport between him and the ever flexible Malcolm Martineau was apparent also ten years ago and it has, if anything, deepened further." MusicWeb Jan 2018
"Boesch's flexible and rich-grained baritone blends with the colourful support of Malcolm Martineau at the piano to offer splendidly characterised accounts of the Schumann…It's in the Mahler, though, that Boesch and Martineau reach new heights…The emotional impact is devastating." BBC Music Awards Finalist 2019
"A performance that momentarily convinces you the piano-accompanied version [of Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen] is preferable to the better-known orchestral version, with much credit going to Malcolm Martineau who generally displays more temperament than the baritone…The profound sense of leave-taking in the final Wayfarer song draws some of the most coloristically subtle singing I've yet heard from Boesch." Gramophone
