Writing for The Independent , Louis Chilton observed there was something “wonderfully, life-affirmingly sweet” about Hopkins’ music, which shifted between “bright, brass-led fanfares to elegant waltzes”. “It’s been a dream for the Decca Classics team to work with Sir Anthony Hopkins, Gustavo Dudamel and all those involved in this beautiful record, which reflects a lifetime’s passion and work,” she said.
