The three performers are ideally balanced and their ensemble is impeccable

3rd May 2015

Berkeley’s chamber music — small-scale but sterling — is perhaps his creative essence...Outstanding in the exuberantly performed sequence are the expressive central adagio of the Op 19 String Trio and the 1971 Introduction and Allegro for double bass (Lachlan Radford) and piano (Libby Burgess).
