"Smith’s strong, clear sound is superbly captured in a space that accentuates the disc’s existential aura of one human alone with little but his own consciousness for company."
- Patrick Rucker, Gramophone
"..this luxuriantly detailed reading, matched by a clean-cut recording, will not leave existing Kurtág devotees disappointed."
- Philip Clark, The Strad
