Awards and reviews
April 2006
…a strong, sympathetic performance of Sibelius's one mature quartet, Voces Intimae, can make you regret that he didn't stick with the medium. …it's good to hear this music taken so seriously, and so shaped so powerfully. The recordings are as fine as this truly outstanding playing deserves.
June 2006
In the Grieg, a powerful, emphatic style highlights the music's passionate intensity. …a magnificent performance… of the Sibelius… with a deeply felt Adagio and, in the finale, playing of such poise, crispness and vitality as to outpace even the 1930s Budapest.
