Robert Beale, music critic of the Manchester Evening News and a regular contributor to Classical Music magazine, chose Gregson’s String Quartet as one of his favourite premieres of 2015:
One new work I would certainly have put in this slot was Edward Gregson’s string quartet (premiered by the Navarra Quartet in January for Manchester Mid-day Concerts Society). It’s Gregson’s first piece in the genre, both gritty and serene, packed with ideas and giving the sense of a journey to a promised land.
