"Four Stars ... the Chilingirians, whose crisp ensemble and tonal richness is ideal for this music, play it with charm and energy ..."
- BBC Music Magazine
"The Chilingirians, whose crisp ensemble and tonal richness is ideal for this music, play it with charm and energy ... precision, polish and expressiveness ... sonics are a model of clarity and immediacy."
- American Record Guide
"We have waited 65 years for a recording of Lennox Berkeley’s Second String Quartet so it’s particularly welcome in this admirable Chandos series ... these well recorded performances are a fine demonstration of the Chilingirians’ exceptional panache and show total sympathy throughout."
- Gramophone
The Chilingirian String Quartet is joined by cellist Thomas Carroll on this album of world premieres of works by father and son composers Lennox and Michael Berkeley, first released in 2006.
