“The Poulenc Flute Sonata is one of those works which… catch you at once by the ear and heart — and this crisp yet sensitive performance helps matters along very pleasantly. Jennifer Stinton's playing is sensitive and Scott Mitchell is a sympathetic partner. … Her flute sound is well caught… and the recital as a whole is attractive. … [The] Prokofiev [is a] sunny and substantial piece. … Martinu, here, too, a work of considerable interest and charm. … Eldin Burton was an American banker and part-time composer. … His style in this prize-winning Flute Sonata of 1946 is skilfully and agreeably conservative and tells us something about his generation and nationality, some debt to… Copland being apparent, though I suspect he also knew his Debussy. After this music, Fauré's Morceau de lecture is a good choice to round the recital off with a pleasantly Gallic charm, balancing the Poulenc at the start.”
