CD ReviewsFantastic! Wrbts | Arizona | 08/03/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "Absolutely fantastic! I am a huge fan of the St. Lawrence and this is one of their best. The St. Lawrence really understands Shostakovich and that definitely comes through in their music. Sadly, one of their members is moving on to other things. That makes this all the more special. There is no doubt that we will hear more great music from them in the future." Thoughtful, riveting performances Owen R. Youngman | Chicago, IL USA | 01/22/2007 (4 out of 5 stars) "The St. Lawrence String Quartet may not be as well known as, say, the Emerson, whose traversal of the entire Shostakovich quartet canon is a must-have. It is hard to imagine, though, a better taste of the early and middle quartets than this selection of three -- at least until Cuarteto Casals commits its interpretation of No. 8, which we heard for the second time in Santa Fe this past August, to disc. But this review is about the St. Lawrence, and their No. 8 is also profoundly to be admired, with No. 3 and No. 7 right up there."
