‘Masterful…utterly ‘Wienerisch’…sublime’

Michel Dutrieue’s enthusiastic review of the Alban Berg Ensemble‘s debut CD in the Belgian Stretto Magazine:

‘It is striking how beautifully transparent the otherwise complex script of Mahler’s Adagio sounds. In their performance of Schönberg’s Kammersymphonie, they conjure up the correct colours from the expressionist dissonances on their instruments, and Strauss’ Rosenkavalier Suite sounds utterly “Wienerisch”…Sublime!’
