These are performances of great distinction, which rise confidently to the challenge of the widely admired Perlman/Ashkenzy set...Stylish and musical playing was to be expected from these two sensitive and experienced artists...but what is particularly impressive is the unified thinking and subtle interplay of their partnership: tone and phrasing hare are matched to a nicety...again and again I found myself applauding some felicitous nuance of ensemble...beautifully limpid, natural, and well-balanced sound."
