Works by Philadelphia area composers performed by Philadelphia area musicians.
From American Record Guide (March/April 2000): “One of the best Barber quartet recordings I have ever heard. This is some of the warmest, most humane chamber playing I have heard, and the warm sound is truly remarkable--soft, vibrant, and intensely gracious. Most small-label chamber discs that I come across sport bright floodlit acoustics. Not this one. I have not been to Goodhart Hall at Bryn Mawr College, but the engineers have certainly whipped it.
(The result of the playing of the Barber here) is a breathtaking realization that perhaps we have misinterpreted this work for many years--it is not so much furious and violent as pensive and tragically fragile. All of the works offer enjoyment. The performers are all crackerjack players.
