Notes & Reviews:

"This...disc typifies the programs ABQ has offered over the years. In several sets of Renaissance-era works, the group shows its commitment to variety and expressiveness...This wonderful reading [of Ewald's Quintet 2] is loaded with dynamic shape, emotion, and energy...In Anthony Plog's 'Mosaics'...[they] sound so homogenous that it is often difficult to tell when a line shifts from one instrument to another...the...Lazarof...is given a fierce reading..." -Kilpatrick, ARG
