CD Reviews

Outstanding.

12/16/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"One of the greatest performances of these masterpieces -- passionate and accurate. The Quintet in G Minor K.516 is Mozart's most pessimistic and intense work, and the Griller Quartet brings out these qualities while remaining true to Mozartian idiom."
