Uppsala Chamber Soloists (Ensemble)

The Uppsala Chamber Soloists are one of Sweden’s most eminent string ensembles, delving into Baroque, Viennese Classical, Romantic or new music, always performed with the same total control and stylistic sense. Just as the name implies, they are both chamber musicians and soloists. The two charming string quintets on this new recording are delivered in their usual elegant way and already drawing high praise from music critics.

The sound here is brighter and more immediate. This allows the sometimes thick instrumental textures to emerge with great clarity and definition. Everything seems just right. Tempi, dynamics and phrasing are well judged. Intonation and ensemble marks the performances out with distinction. — MusicWeb International, 24th May 2013
