(Quartz QTZ2042)
‘ ….the result is gorgeous, as here in the serene conclusion to the slow movement of the Clarinet Trio…exuding poise and elegance.’
CD Review BBC Radio 3
‘….splendid performances.This richly rewarding release completes the Gould’s admirable cycle on a high note. Full of lyrical outpouring, warm and varied tone, and perfect judgement of tempi, all these performances display an all too rare ability to combine in equal measure instrumental cohesion and expressive individuality. These are conversations, never debates…heart-warming and mind-nourishing celebrations of community-vividly characterised, very shrewdly built, while never sacrificing small-scale detail to large-scale structure, and grippingly communicative.’
