Read Press Release

"[Rachel Barton and Wendy Warner] are major virtuosos who collaborate like best friends… The players' coordination and virtuosity are reminiscent of those of the best string quartets of today (think Emerson), and the generous program is vividly recorded. A superb disc in every respect. Encore!"
Editorial Review - Amazon.com

"Barton and Warner [play] this demanding music with virtuosity, virility, and the ability to play an accelerando that really goes over the top… Their Ravel balances lyricism with technical brilliance in a performance that rivals Jaime Laredo and Yo-Yo Ma."
American Record Guide
International Record Review

"The musical communication between "childhood friends" Rachel Barton and Wendy Warner results in a natural, brilliantly effective dialog… Their partnership is a generous, equal one: and their timbres are ideally matched... musicianship of mature insight, hair-raising electricity, and intense involvement… Unhesitatingly recommended."
Fanfare

A January 2000 Strad Selection
"flair and imagination… intelligently realized... energetic and intensely passionate... brilliantly conveyed… a most distinguished enterprise."
The Strad

"There is a lot of energy on this disc, a lot of virtuosic intensity and yet when gentleness and something lovely and tender is called for, Ms. Barton and Ms. Warner are meltingly warm and soulful. If you like chamber music for string instruments, you couldn't ask for anything better than this CD."
