'[...] clean modern flute technique with not too much vibrato; crisp or suave string ensemble according to musical character – all recorded with bright immediacy'

BBC Music Magazine

'The playing here by the Finnish flautist Sami Junnonen is highly convincing as is the string playing from Chamber Domaine'
Lark Reviews

'Junnonen is joined by violinist Thomas Kemp, violist Robert Smissen, and cellist Richard Harwood, and the ensemble strikes a fine balance that reveals clear details in the parts, while maintaining a blended tone that fits the homophonic textures of these early works.'

'A wonderfully beautiful performance of heavenly beautiful music. Highly recommended!'
Stretto
