Reviews
“Whiteley’s music, by turns vigorous and introspective, is a valuable addition to modern organ literature; but this disc is also worth having as a marvellous record of his accomplished skills as a performer” The Organ winter 2011
“To hear a great performer playing an instument with which he has been in daily contact for almost thirty-five years is pleasure enough, but to hear him playing his own music is to be given a privileged look into his innermost thoughts…. His playing is legendary for his breadth of understanding and technical command” Cathedral Music May 2011
