Editor's Choice - Gramophone Magazine (Awards Issue 2002)

"Schnittke's First Cello Sonata, written in 1978, is his most performed and recorded work - and this new version from Raphael Wallfisch can stand comparison with the best of them. It's a powerful work, played with a real feeling for its drama. The Second Sonata, too, is vividly done - more extrovert than some readings and technically magnificent. The Shostakovich Viola Sonata works well on the cello - a pleasing change of mood after the instensity of the Schnittke." (Gramophone)
