Zukerman ChamberPlayers

Brahms: String Quintet No.2, Op.111

Mozart: String Quintet, K.515

'Leading the ChamberPlayers, Pinchas Zukerman gives a wonderful performance of these two works, bringing out their radiant beauty'    Amadeus Magazine (Italy) Jan 2007

'The is evenly matched chamber music at its best. Grace and elegance pervade these pieces and a lightness of touch illuminates the counterpoint and the denser textures. There is a tender rather than a dramatic approach, though the final coda in the Brahms is tossed off with panache.... Congratulation to Pinchas Zukerman for cultivating such wonderful music making with the musicians of the future.'  Stringendo Magazine - Volume 29 Number 2 2007 (Australia)  

'Pinchas Zukerman is playing with a group of younger musicians who are equal to him in every way. They share the attitude that beauty of sound, roundness of tone, and clarity of articulation are the primary goals of chamber music playing. I am very impressed with the extremely high quality of the playing'   Elaine Fine - American Record Guide March/April 2007
