Scenes from Childhood
‘Stephen Hough’s memoir had me gripped from the beginning [ …] riveting and revelatory. Most memoirs give me far more than I want to know – this is the rare sort that left me urgently demanding a second volume, a third, a fourth. I loved it.’ — Philip Pullman
‘A warm, wise and unflinching stroll down memory lane. And Hough writes like a dream, with an almost Alan Bennett-like eye and ear for the sights and sounds of childhood ... What Hough's memoir makes abundantly, movingly clear is that all roads lead back to his parents ...They don't define him. But they made him. You can hear it in his music. Chaos, creation, catharsis.’ — Dan Cairns, Sunday Times

Chopin: The Complete Waltzes
‘Launching his latest album with the earliest of waltzes to which Chopin gave an opus number, Stephen Hough sets a sparkling tone for what follows on this altogether brilliant disc … Hough is a pianist with all the elegance, wit and virtuosity required for these pieces, yet he also finds the deep vein of melancholy that runs through many of them’ — BBC Music Magazine
