If she made her Guarnerius sing in the Elgar, she made it talk in Monti's famous Czardas …the large audience howled for more’’ Guernsey Post “... wonderfully contrasting programme ... played with verve and a powerful raw sense of rhythm.” The Birmingham Post “... as much at home with classics as with pops… Beverley Davison’s light hearted approach to music, reflected in jocular asides to the audience, did not detract from her brilliance as a soloist nor from the consummate attention to tonal detail she drew from her orchestra – whether they were playing Glen Millers ‘Moonlight Serenade’ or Elgar’s ‘Chanson du Matin’...” The Eastern Daily Post, Norwich “A much loved and excellently gifted musician …” Lord Yehudi Menuhin “One of the most naturally and superbly gifted musicians it has been my privilege to work with...” Sir Peter Maxwell Davies “Brilliant!! A totally versatile musician...” John Dankworth ‘One of the most outrageously gifted musicians and inspirators this country has ever produced.’ Sir Simon Rattle
