…the playing here is predictably impressive. In particular, the outer movements of the two Mendelssohn trios sound refreshingly less frenetic than they often do, and the comparatively relaxed tempos - the opening movement of the D minor Trio, in particular, well below the composer's improbably fast metronome marking - lend the music's more lyrical moments all the breadth they need, without sacrificing anything in momentum and intensity elsewhere.

The three players are, of course, consummate chamber musicians and they bring out subtleties of texture in a very pleasing manner: the opening cello theme is beautifully moulded, the finale has a delightful sense of mischief to it.
