MusicWeb International‘s Brian Reinhart calls our new Babadjanian & Vasks: Piano Trios “a very satisfying musical adventure” in his latest review:
“This disc couples two great, nearly unknown piano trios from the second half of the twentieth century. … savour their music… Babadjanian was best-known for his chamber music…a mash-up of Rachmaninov’s dark emotional fixations, Khachaturian’s folksy language and an old-fashioned insistence on tying everything together with a motto theme. … Vasks’ lush orchestral sound is far away, but his love of contrast is here… You might think of Shostakovich or Weinberg. … If you’re a fan of either composer, or the repertoire sounds interesting, go for it. This is a very satisfying musical adventure.” —Brian Reinhart, MusicWeb International
