"...This is a lovely collection of Russian chamber music All of this material is played with conviction by the Nash Ensemble I’m glad to have this new recording, not only for the new ten minutes of Borodin."

David W Moore - American Record Guide - November/December 2012

Recording of the Month

"...the Nash Ensemble give warm-hearted, lyrical readings of all these works, and there are too many highlights to mentionthis album has made me very happy. Two of my favorite underappreciated chamber works, a delightful novelty from Borodin, and the ever-superb playing of the Nash Ensemble, with everyone (it seems silly to single one player out) delivering their solo lines and melodies with satisfying warmth. The engineering leaves nothing to be desired; the program, filling as it does three gaps in the average listener’s library, adds up to more than the sum of its parts. The cover design’s pretty terrific too. I could go on, but what more do you need to hear?"

Brian Reinhart - MusicWeb-International.com - 13 August 2012

"... The performances make the best possible case for these works. There isn’t a weak link in the Nash Ensemble’s line-up: each player has total command over the material but none dominates, making for the freshest kind of chamber music, all captured brilliantly in warmly resonant sound."

Andrew Morris - International Record Review - July/August 2012

"... Borodin’s incomplete String Sextet and Glazunov’s Quintet are well worth a listen, particularly when played with such elan as they are here" ****
