Charis-Ensemble
„Die Interpretation des Charis-Ensembles ist im höchsten Maße
erstaunlich. Sprühend vor Lebendigkeit, Fröhlichkeit,
das ist größte Meisterschaft.” (Echo de la Baise)
„Ein brillantes Hörvergnügen erster Klasse.” (Stereoplay)
”The Octet of 1972 is the most engaging of the present works: starting
in a romantic pastoral mood, ... and the finale, scored with coruscatingly
brilliant ingenuity, consists of a series of parodistic Viennese
waltzes, Great fun. The recording is admirable.” (Gramophone)
