“From the first note, one hears an immediate and direct instrumental sound, with instruments on a wide, deep soundstage that begins at the speaker plane and extends deeply. … I find this startlingly close to a real concert experience, where the hall acoustics have a more subtle influence and don’t intrude on the main event. … The performances are spectacular … This is a thrilling disc. I look forward to hearing more from this team, and its performers on both sides of the microphones.” — Kalman Rubinson, Stereophile Magazine
