Two substantial and finely constructed quartets by British composers
“The Bochmann Quartet… prove inspired and dedicated performers in these substantial additions to the British string quartet canon.”
Hubert Culot
“These are quartets of substance from two British composers... Dedicated playing from the Bochmann Quartet, with suitably close, focused sound.”
Richard Whitehouse
“[The Sackman piece] is a genuine string quartet and, therefore, a rarity. A truly memorable work. One hesitates to say it but it is almost a perfect work. Nicholson’s quartet is the more profound in statement whereas the Sackman is more immediate. But both quartets are works of a rare and distinctive quality and the Bochmann Quartet’s performances are convincing. I would not want to be without this disc.”
