'Managed with exquisite delicacy', wrote 'The Times', in reference to Sinfonietta's newly released 'Brahms-Schönberg' CD. Brought out by Channel Classics, it features Arnold Schönberg's spellbinding Verklärte Nacht coupled with a new version of Johannes Brahms's symphonic String Quartet opus 51 in C minor. The CD was qualified with the 'Opus d'Or'. 'Amsterdam Sinfonietta once again captivates us with its extremely passionate approach, allowing timbres to blossom within a broad, vigorous and consummately paced musical line.[..] in fact it is the clarity of ensemble that gives rise to poetry, poetry that holds the listener spellbound until the final note of this masterly score.' ('Opus', about the Brahms-Schönberg CD)
