"...outstanding in every way. The repertory [of this disc and More Cohler on Clarinet (024-102)] includes both of Brahms' Sonatas, and they have become my preferred performances...his sensational ability to control all musical elements makes these late Brahms masterpieces even more poignant..."
--Listener

"Vigorous, leonine readings...commandingly played...this is playing of real distinction...in total command of every demonstrative and virtuosic gesture...scintillating playing."
