Notes & Reviews:

American Record Guide, November/December 2012
The Prezioso plays with notable accuracy and a lively sense of the intent of the music. It is a beautifully balanced and very listenable program. There are other options for most of this music, but this is a very satisfying juxtaposition of pieces played with conviction and recorded with a lovely sound. I enjoyed it and I hope you will, too.
