Press Quotes
“Lively performances from the group Noxwode… it’s exuberant and playful music” (BBC Radio 3 ‘Record Review’)
“The musicians are bold and assured and very well recorded… I could not be happier with what I hear, and the musicians are clearly enjoying themselves and proud of their accomplishment… Excellent sound.” (American Record Guide)
“I have never heard such a supernatural virtuosity – combined with a spontaneity, a naturalness, an enthusiasm…” (Grey-Panthers.it)
“This series of violin sonatas is fascinating for its contrasts of mood, flamboyantly rendered by the young violinist Conor Gricmanis… It is gratifying to hear a new player bringing freshness to a repertoire with which we might have felt familiar.” (Early Music Review)
