“Hewitt’s is, unlike a number of other versions of Ravel’s œuvre, a highly worthwhile venture, full of stylish, intelligent playing” (International Record Review)

“This is revelatory playing … Hewitt is never anything other than stimulating, probing, characterful and sensitive to both the individual nuance and broader perspective of each piece” (International Piano)

“Revelatory playing that comprehensively challenges current perceived standards of Ravel keyboard interpretation to set alongside the greatest of the past masters … a landmark set that offers unbound opportunities to learn, discover and delight in” (Piano, Germany)

“a magnificent survey … a treasure trove!” (Gramophone)

“second to none” (The Penguin Guide to Compact Discs)
