Awards and reviews
October 2011
The performances are immaculate in both execution and ensemble, and very sensitive in their feeling for the composer's elusive but memorable muse. The recording is truthful and beautifully balanced in an ideally intimate acoustic. This will prove a real find for lovers of French chamber music, notably of Ravel and Debussy.
