Boris Berman, piano
“The most remarkable aspect of Mr. Berman’s playing was its poetical refinement and intense musicality. His technical resources appear to be virtually limitless.” — The New York Times
Ettore Causa, viola
“One can hear his prodigious sonority right from the very first seconds…with his deep and warm voice, sometimes dark and flamboyant but always profound and golden” — Diapason
Paul Watkins, cello
“Britain’s finest cellist, Watkins’ account [of the Elgar concerto] seems the best to have appeared on disc for years. It has intensity, presence and warmth.” — The Guardian
