[No. 10] seems especially apt to the contained luminosity of James Ehnes’s violin playing, the pristine pianism of Andrew Armstrong and their remarkable rapport, playing as if one…Recorded in a roomy yet intimate acoustic, this disc rounds off what is surely one of the most satisfying cycles of the Beethoven violin sonatas of the last decade.

February 2021

It’s captivating to hear what Andrew Armstrong does with his spotlight. He has a wonderful ability to create an atmosphere in an instant, as if he’s pulling the music out of the air...The conversation is spontaneous, the storytelling is packed with character, and both sonatas are played with an alertness that might feel impatient if it wasn’t so affectionate...A a wonderfully positive conclusion to a life-enhancing cycle.
