« First class transcriptions and performance. »


« [Martin Caron] carries on a tradition which was popular in the Romantic era. A most interesting idea to take up this formula. »


« A performance outstanding in its clarity and harmony. I enjoy transcriptions of such important and difficult orchestral works. »


« A unique and original project … this CD reveals the talent and boldness of these young performers. »
