“Presti's tuneful Étude fantasque, Jolivet's weightier Sérénade pour deux guitares, Daniel-Lesur's lyrical Elégie and Castelnuovo-Tedesco's moving Fuga elegiaca - To the Memory of Ida Presti. These Eden and Stell dispatch with immense feeling and even a certain reverence. But in both the conception and the execution, it's Chris Stell's fine arrangement of Bach's Concerto in D minor, BWV974 (after Alessandro Marcello), that perhaps brings us closer to the true spirit of the Presti-Lagoya project - the earlier duo's sheer taste, ambition and style.”

— Gramophone
