Critic, James Manheim, rates the new Brahms: The String Quintets & Sextets highly in his new review on AllMusic.com:
“But hear the way the innocent opening theme of the G major quintet’s first movement almost immediately becomes ensnared in extreme complexities, and the way the Alexander group (the two additional players on the album are seamlessly integrated) brings out the depth of the whole. Throughout, the group’s way with the intellectual-emotional dynamics of Brahms is exceptionally good; the musicians just seem to have the music on their fingertips and to be submerged in it.” —James Manheim, AllMusic
