Notes & Reviews:

"...Everytime I hear them [Colorado Quartet] I am surprised by their playing--at just how fine a quartet they are...In the Schubert they reveal their phrases bit by bit and their pacing is extraordinary...The Mendelssohn is perfect--just the right combination of extroversion and introspection, as well as the perfect balance of classicism and romanticism...Their balances are beautiful and they play with real tonal imagination...Their playing is ideal..." -Fine, ARG
