Piatti Quartet & Simon Callaghan
“…pianist Simon Callaghan picks you up at the start of each movement and maintains an expressive, flexible continuity to the end…[he] plays with a gorgeous tone, whether slow and legato or en pointe with rapid triplets. Above all, he takes “the long view,” as suggested above, weaving entire movements into flowing wholes.” (Fanfare USA) Friends […]

Rautio Trio + Pre-Concert Recital with Boreas Trio
“Rautio’s instrument has an unusually warm and rounded tone, which melds and contrasts satisfyingly with Victoria Simonsen’s cello and Gordon’s violin…And these players make the most of Beethoven’s playfulness, notably in the E flat major work’s finale, where the fortepiano provokes some mischievous squeaks from the violin.” (BBC Music Magazine) Since releasing their debut album […]

Winterreise with Mark Padmore & Noam Greenberg

I think this is an outstanding Winterreise, one to live with for a while.” (Andrew McGregor, BBC Radio 3 Record Review) Tenor Mark Padmore and pianist Noam […]
