****
“…Fountain's idiomatic nuancing and the grainy texture of Geringas's cello are certainly distinctive. But it is in the magnificent Sonata in G minor that the duo dig deepest. There's nothing ethereal about the achingly beautiful Andante, which is seized with passion, building to a thunderous climax. The finale surges restlessly, as I feel it should. The sound is edgy and virile, not always purely resonant, but overall their tremendous sweep and sense of shape convinced me.”
