Tabea Zimmermann is an extraordinary talent, with a profound understanding of music and a natural way of playing. She is one of the leading contemporary viola players worldwide and this year was awarded the prestigious Echo Klassic as "Instrumentalist of the Year". Her previous CD of Bach and Reger Solo Suites (MYR003) received excellent reviews and was a Gramophone Editor's Choice.
"Zimmermann's performance is masterly, strongly characterised in the positive first movement and the witty Scherzo [of the Clarke]...[In the Vieuxtemps] too Zimmermann and Gerstein give an ideal performance. Recording of all three works is excellent, a credit to this new label." Gramophone Magazine, November 2010
"Zimmermann and Gerstein allow the music (Brahms) to unfold naturally in a gentle, autumnal account." International Record Review, March 2011
