Notes & Reviews:

"The Hartley Piano Trio have followed their discs of British and Czech piano trios with this admirably chosen American selection. They are an excellent ensemble, well balanced, invariably musical and utterly satisfying to listen to in all the styles represented here. Well recorded too". - Gramophone

"This is a fascinating disc, and the gaps it is likely to plug in your CD collection are the sort of gaps you didn't know you had... I'd recommend it to the curious, and especially to players in adventurous piano trios on the lookout for new repertoire. Many of these works deserve a much wider audience." -Classical-CD-Reviews.com
