“the Danel Quartet deliver strongly committed performances employing a hugely varied and imaginative tonal palette that always serves the music to its best advantage.”

“this disc is the final volume in a complete survey of [Weinberg's] string quartets. It is, therefore, a particular joy that they play with such insight, as well as accuracy and homogeneity of tone and ensemble. There is no hint of the victim in this music...Instead, it is imbued with a sense of pride in how greatness manages to flourish above all.”
