CD Reviews

A Wonderful Album

Paul Wiese | Vacaville, California, US | 03/15/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have generally been very happy with the EMI Gemini series, which are rereleases of older performances, although in a couple of cases the sound quality has not been great. The sound on this album is fine, however. The performances (and of course the music) are first rate. A very good addition to any chamber music collection."
