Talented violinist Philippe Quint combines lyricism, poetry and impeccable virtuosity in his performances and has twice been nominated for a Grammy award. The Times referred to his “bravura technique and unflagging energy.” He has impressed audiences across the world and here performs these works on a Stradivarius violin.

Gramophone Magazine

September 2012

“The partnership seems especially happy in the Bruch. Quint and his colleagues have a knack of discovering when to allow a little extra time, or where to slacken the tempo slightly and then to push on...The other items, too, have much to recommend them, Quint plays both Beethoven Romances beautifully.”

BBC Music Magazine

***

“Quint's charismatic accounts of these over-familiar scores are well worth hearing, though ensemble with the Mexican orchestra is not always razor-sharp.”
