All distinguished soloists in their own right, they are committed to the interpretational ideals of their illustrious predecessors. They received the DIAPASON D'OR award for their recording of the Dvorák trios. "This recording of his two most important trios will probably come to be considered as one of the most physical and abrasive, the least easy on the ear, but also the most heartfelt and the most fired by a rare emotional charge and authenticity."
