"...'Heroic Elegy' is not the only work on this superbly performed pioneering disc to show that Farrar, fine technician as he was by the age of 30, also commanded a range of deep feelings. 'The Forsaken Merman', a finely sustained, half-hour-long symphonic poem, can be both rugged and nobly desolate..." --BC Music, 3/98 - Performance: 5 (out of 5), Sound: 5 (out of 5)
"Reclaiming forgotten but worthy music from the sinkhole of oblivion is always a commendable endeavor, and this Chandos release...is a superior example....anyone with an interest in British music of this century will have to investigate this disc." --Fanfare
