“[...] sweet in tone.”
American Record Guide, February 2018
“The interpretations and recording of this cd are at a very high standard. Boris Giltburg’s colorful playing supports the brilliantly playing Pavel Haas Quartet”
De Standaard, December 2017
“Another Pavel Haas Quartet disc, another triumph.”
Gramophone, November 2017
Seven years after their triumph with quartets by Dvorák (SU4038-2, Op. 96 "American" and Op. 106 - 2011 Gramophone Award for "Recording of the Year), the Pavel Haas Quartet are making a triumphant return to Dvorák's music. For the recording of the quintets, they have invited two guests: the pianist Boris Giltburg (winner of the 2013 Queen Elisabeth Competition) and Pavel Nikl, a founding member of the Pavel Haas Quartet. Dvorák composed his Second Piano Quintet at his beloved summer residence Vysoká late in the summer of 1887. The famed critic Eduard Hanslick received the work's performance in Vienna enthusiastically: "It is one of his most beautiful works. It is real Dvorák." The String Quintet, Op. 97, although younger by just six years, represents an entirely "different Dvorák". After the New World Symphony and the American Quartet, it is Dvorák's third work composed while in North America. And what did Hanslick have to say this time? "It is perhaps the simplest, most natural, and happiest music composed since the days of Haydn." The degree to which the Pavel Haas Quartet feels at home with Dvorák's music is shown by the many awards their recordings have received (Diapason d'Or, BBC Music Magazine Recording of the Month), crowned by the ensemble's sixth (!) Gramophone Award. Now there will also be something for fans of vinyl sound: 180 g virgin vinyl, DMM cutting... What more is there to say?
