"This is a superb disc, in fact one of the best discs with baroque violin music I have heard for some time. Making the acquaintance of the music of Giovanni Antonio Piani was a most pleasant experience. I hope that his other sonatas will be recorded in the near future, preferably by these three fine artists."

"The virtuosity of many movements is not lost on Percan who makes a great impression with his playing technique. His performance is never at the cost of expression or good taste. The slow movements are delivered with great sensitivity, his phrasing and articulation are immaculate, and his ornamentation decent and tasteful. This is a superb disc, in fact one of the best discs with baroque violin music I have heard for some time. Making the acquaintance of the music of Giovanni Antonio Piani was a most pleasant experience. I hope that his other sonatas will be recorded in the near future, preferably by these three fine artists."
