In the press

"Biddau's recording is as lovely as the pieces deserve. His tone is liquescent, yet his touch is firm - a happy combination in this context, as when his fingerwork controls the occasional sprays of pianistic fioritura that Faure writes. He also seems to understand the subtle, sometimes elusive quality of Faure's inspiration." 
International Record Review, June 2012
