“...Northey conducted with both intimacy and skill...a perceptive and devoted performance.”  (London Philharmonic Orchestra, Classical Source, London 2010)


“Northey lifts the music from the conventional and into the extraordinary. Exciting! A star of the future.” Gelfe Dagbladet, Sweden


“Northey coaxed a glittering response from his forces...This was a model reading (Strauss Don Juan) that evoked the score’s inherent exuberance with flair”  The West Australian, Perth.


“Northey is a born conductor, one who revels in his work..he appears to be in a state of perpetual delight.” The Age, Melbourne


“...an engrossing and revealing performance...(Stravinsky Symphony in C, LPO)” Classical Source, London
