‘To explore the tracks on this recording is to explore Rostropovich himself, and Gerhardt’s performances themselves approach this mission in different ways … Gerhardt mostly eschew Rostropovich’s own deliberate roughness in favour of an equally grabbing fluttering, puck-like finesse’ (Gramophone)

Gabrieli (G): 1615 - Gabrieli in Venice
Studio Master: KGS0012  Download only  Studio Master FLAC & ALAC downloads available

'His Majestys Sagbutts and Cornetts (yes that is a 'g') are well known for their expert playing of the fiercely difficult Renaissance cornett and the more easily handled trombone-like sackbutt. Within the spacious acoustic of Kings College Chapel they sound both lyrical and grand as required and when joining the voices the resultant polyphony is quite glorious to hear' (MusicWeb International)

Młynarski & Zarzycki: Violin Concertos
Studio Master: CDA67990  Studio Master FLAC & ALAC downloads available

«Parmi les rares versions de ces concertos, la nouvelle venue a le mérite de souscrire à leur caractère romantique (parfois échevelé) en divisant le travail: par la qualité des vents et la souplesse de cordes, le BBC Scottish Symphony, placé sous la direction du Polonais Michal Dworzynski, cligne de l'œil vers Mendelssohn, Brahms ou Strauss; par sa virtuosité incandescente et l'intensité de son discours, le jeune Russe Eugene Ugorski pactise plutôt avec Tchaïkovski. Et de mouvement en mouvement, tous débordant de vie et d'engagement, la jonction s'opère dans une entente artistique réjouissante» (Diapason, France)» More
