Notes & Reviews:

This collection of recordings illuminates two different sides of Tasmin Little's accomplished playing. While the Brahms and Sibelius Concertos are a testament to her technical skill and breadth of expression, the Pärt works display a more pared-back approach, making full use of Little's pure and resonant tone.
