Notes and Editorial Reviews

The ‘Trout’ Quintet receives the spirited and refreshingly genial attentions of pianist Ronan O’Hora and the RPO ensemble. O’Hora’s spontaneous delight at each joyous incident, allied to delectable string playing, results in a creditable performance. The ‘Rosamunde’ is less successful perhaps, if only because its character is more elusive and intimate; that said, the RPO principals acquit themselves honourably, and are well recorded.
