Sublime.......2001-12-17

Jaap Schröder is among the world's greatest violinists. He can cut anything, but his specialty is eloquence, not flash. The quartets he has led, the Esterhazy and the Smithson, play Haydn and Mozart better than anybody. The gesture and nuance you hear from them is uniquely cultivated.

A lovely CD.......2001-01-02

This CD is a must for lovers of clasical music played on period instruments.
