‘Not always profound Beethoven, but genuine Beethoven all the same. If you are fond of the Septet, Op 20, for string quartet, clarinet, bassoon and horn, this arrangement as a clarinet trio, albeit by Beethoven himself, may not please. But give it a chance, because these musicians repeat the artistry displayed in Op 11, the piano by no means an unidiomatic intrusion.’ Gramophone


‘…the performances on this recording are all unfailingly musical and enjoyable.’
