Awards and reviews

April 2013

The performers have gone to great lengths to achieve an authentic sound. Rachel Barton Pine plays a late-Renaissance era fiddle rather than a Baroque violin...But what really seizes the ear is the unfailing grace, energy and expressivity of the three players. The music may be extravagant but the performances are well-balanced.

15th May 2014

This delightfully played recital, very well recorded in Nichols Concert Hall at the Music Institute of Chicago, will appeal strongly to those who have followed the trio’s earlier European jaunts.
