Some reviews:
“The playing is marvellously poised, an exemplary concept album aptly adapted to each composer’s circumstances and individuality. Baker and Lebhardt tell four very human stories, each of them flawed. I was on the edge of my seat throughout.”
5 Stars – Norman Lebrecht, La Scena Musicale
“Baker and Lebhardt, who listen and respond to each other precisely and sensitively, are ideal and impassioned guides” – Fiona Maddocks, The Guardian
“Three excellent sonatas played with passion and understanding here, making for a compelling recital. It puts us into the sound of Europe emerging into a different world” – Record Review, BBC Radio 3
Ben and Daniel came to Concerts in the West in May 2023 as members of the Northern Chords Ensemble.
