"Two hours of the most devastating clarity of pianism I have witnessed. When Hough is in this form he cannot be rivaled ... A colossal recital."

"Isserlis can turn a single note into a smile or a lament. His bow becomes an extension of his arm and, though it seems strange to say, he listens with full attention to every sound he makes. It's the only way to explain the unrivalled intensity of his playing."

Established in 1995 in memory of the wife of the late Lord Chief Justice Peter Taylor, the charity has delivered 189 projects in 67 prisons involving more than 2,100 inmate participants.
