REVIEW - Piano Professional
Cameos, such as Pillar Box Red, Dusty Blue and Emerald Green, actually 'sound' like their colours. Armstrong is endlessly imaginative despite the simple hand positions. The style is a mixture of diatonic, whole tone, Celtic minimalist, jazz and impressionist. Nothing jars and all seems inevitable an yet fresh. Each one is a gem. Short paragraphs on the pieces introduce concept like suspensions, counterpoint, triads and note clusters in a disarmingly natural way. Nancy Litten - ABRSM Examiner
