Awards and reviews
October 2014
Meticulously balanced, deeply felt chamber-scale performances that may lack the charismatic surge of the LPO principals in the String sextet No. 1 (on EMI), but capture the String Sextet No. 2 introspective poetic fantasy with alacrity.
16th June 2014
It offers polished performances, setting an ideal pace, with the ensemble playing with a sense of shared purpose. They seem fully inside the music. Dynamics and phrasing are ideal. There’s an unshowy virtuosity, and a youthful freshness in the playing. These are strongly argued performances and ones that I could certainly live with and will return to again and again.

They are finely played by the Talich, a Czech group that, with changing membership, has been flourishing for 50 years.
