"As always, Bate's restrained playing offers impeccable clarity, much enlivened when the explosive Allegro of Sonata 6's Variation 4 allows her to click into virtuoso mode."
BBC Music Magazine, August 2005

"She takes a firm hand with the music but does not miss the poetry in it - especially with regard to phrasing - and the clarity of Mendelssohn's part-writing (especially in the contrapuntal pieces) benefits greatly therefrom. Her registration in the shorter pieces never interferes with the inherent flow of the music ..."
International Record Review, August 2005

(Sonata No 6) "Jennifer Bate sensitively brings its myriad possibilities to the listener's attention, with beautifully articulated phrasing and crystal clear control of textures."
MusicWeb International, September 2005

(Sonata No 2) "...abundant vitality, in which Jennifer Bate clearly revels."
MusicWeb International, September 2005
