Reviews

‘What a joy it is to have these virile, intelligent and gorgeously groomed performances back in circulation!… Wonderful music, inspired interpretations, excellent sound, perceptive booklet notes and modest cost to the consumer: anything less than a ’10/10′ would sell this disc short.’ 10/10 ClassicsToday.com.

‘this set of Haydn Piano Trios (Volume 1 here, along with Volume 2, both on Eloquence) is one of the supreme glories of recorded chamber music’ Amazon.com review
