"admirers of this gifted young artist will need no second bidding to acquire this latest recording of hers, for she plays all three works with love and affection [International Recored Review]

"Steinbacher shapes the glorious melody in the opening movement [of the First] with great tenderness and affection and throughout the work there is a real sense of her interaction with conductor Vasily Petrenko and the highly responsive Russian National Orchestra. However the overall effect seems a little calculated...Steinbacher and Petrenko seem much more closely attuned to the emotionally ambiguous wolrd of the Second Violin Concerto" BBC Music
