"I'd never heard the Brentano before, this was their British debut, but I knew of their reputation. And the agile, wiry intelligence of their playing, in a constant state of alert, was...good as promised.

Among its many strengths is an ability to deliver on the chamber music ideals of equal partnership and intellectual dialogue. The group produces a sound that gives the impression of a single, unified instrument that is beautifully balanced and sensitive to the changing importance of individual lines." - AllMusic Guide
