***** (Classica)
“This is a simply wonderful CD, well worth acquiring.” (Art Music Lounge)
“…it’s good to have the very individual mesh of fierce lyricism and grotesquerie in the early Ballade, and transitions to more inward modes of expression in the late Sonata are uniquely well done.” (**** BBC Music)
“They play together with unity and decision! … It is a quiet and well-mastered recording that gives our ears a treat.” (American Record Guide)
“ indispensable à toute discothèque Prokofiev” (Artalinna/ARTAMAG)
