Notes and Editorial Reviews
REVIEWS:
Fanfare (5-6/98, p.193) - "This is about as safe as the avant-garde gets.

BBC Music (3/98, p.70) - Performance: 4 (out of 5), Sound: 4 (out of 5) - "...The Schnittke and Pärt are smoothly given....In the Concerto grosso, three female soloists perform a winning account of a resonant score..."
