Reviews

Bentzon’s music is well-constructed and the performances are excellent. Recommended. (Gramophone)

Særligt de første, dejligt koncentrerede satser viser Bentzon, når han er mest inspireret.
****** (Berlingske Tidende)

this CD is well worth having for the fine Wind Quintet and the Koppel piece. Good performances and excellent recording.
(International Record Review)

Niels Viggo Bentzons 5. blæserkvintet er uhyre velskrevet og konstant fængslende musik, og det gælder i endnu højere grad sekstetten for blæsere og klaver. Stor musik i sin genre.
(High Fidelity)

Koppel´s 1942 Sextet is a delight from beginning to end and the reason to buy this very-well-played-and-recorded disc.
