“Clarinetist Jonathan Sage’s masterful interpretation [of Steve Reich's New York Counterpoint] suitably highlights that lyrical side in the opening bars, before proceeding merrily on through the repetitive, music-box perkiness of the work”
Paddy Kehoe, RTÉ
“Jonathan Sage was an agile but intimate soloist in the Mozart. For all his twinkling fingerwork, it was the Adagio – taken very slowly – that truly impressed, the pianissimo return of the theme breathtaking”
Martin Dreyer, York Press
“Benedict Schlepper-Connolly composed this most interesting piece [Another Country] I found myself listening to the track time after time. Excellent! In every track Jonathan’s playing is excellent (and stamina extraordinary).”
Kenneth Morris, Clarinet & Saxophone Magazine
