2001

The Daily Telegraph, August 2001

5* BBC Music Magazine, October 2001

“9” rating in Repertoire Magazine (France)

BBC Music Magazine Critics' Choice - December 2001

“With the tonal sweetness of Huggett’s three violins resonating pleasingly through the many double- and multiple-stoppings and her bowing demonstrating a delicious lightness and freedom, she admirably displays her eloquent command of Biber’s sublime and richly symbolic language.

Huggett’s [approach] is ravishing in its sonorities, her supporting cast adding significantly to the exotic sounds of the various scordaturas and the overall effect of her intelligent, stylish and expressive playing.”

2002

ASV Gramophone Award Winner 2002 (Baroque Instrumental)

2004

The Strad Magazine, November 2004

“Huggett's playing - on three violins - shines with ease and expression”

The Times

“Huggett’s imaginative approach and lively response to detail are among the most rewarding aspects of her version of these emotionally rewarding pieces.”

5* BBC Music Magazine, December 2004

“Of all the recordings now available of Biber...this [is] by far and away the most spectacular, exuberant, colourful and downright ravishing of them all.

Huggett positively revels in the virtuosity of Biber’s original...Huggett’s beautifully crafted performance of the complex and, at times, profoundly moving solo Passacaglia rounds off what is a matchless recording from every perspective.”

International Record Review, Nov 2004

“No matter how many versions of the Bach violin concertos you already own, this one is a must.”
