Those who might not count the Triple Concerto among Beethoven's finest works could well be swayed by this intelligently balanced, beautifully played performance...in the Archduke Trio, the Storioni are equally impressive, stylistically deep inside the music and conveying both its muscle and its inspired allure.

The Storioni Trio is an ensemble to be reckoned with, and their performance is nuanced towards every detail of Beethoven’s phrasing and dynamic range. The orchestra too, under Jan Willem de Wriend, is sensitive in supporting the solo group. As such the performance in this beautifully engineered CD deserves the highest praise

28th April 2013

This is Beethoven at both his most grandly festive and his most playful and teasing, revelling in the exploration of new colours and textures, which in the largo achieve a rapt beauty. These splendid Dutch forces do it proud.
