Reviews of the Quartet's latest CD
featuring Janacek String Quartets No 1 & 2, and Schulhoff String Quartet No 1 released on the Calliope label (
www.calliope.tm.fr) CD code: CAL9333.
"These are glowing performances. The Talich's
instinctive feel for the music and mutual understanding shines through
every bar, and its pacing is beautifully judged...an uplifting, highly
desirable disc."
Roderic Dunnett, The Strad Chamber Selection, January 2006
"Their readings compel attention at every stage"
Jan Smaczny, BBC Music Magazine, February 2006
"there's an explosive directness here that's
breathtaking, often exhilarating, matched by a sweetness of tone that
can be utterly disarming."
Andrew McGregor, Radio 3 Disc of the Week, 11 February 2006
"these are performances to rival, even surpass, The
Lindsays’ for sheer urgency…this new issue surely has to figure on the
shortest of future short lists."
David Fanning, Editor’s Choice, The Gramophone, March 2006
