Reviews :
« The good Arthur Grumiaux was in a very sentimental mood when he chose the twenty-nine works for this pair of discs. The prevailing pace is andante, the prevailing mood one of heavy sweetness-the stuff to send an audience out not with pulses pounding. There are, of course, nice moments. a Mozart Rondo is bright, articulate, and well planned: Granados' Danza espa-hola No. 5 (Andaluza) is warm and compelling, with its minor -major cadence as magical as ever: Kreisler's Schon Rosmarin is beguiling. » High Fidelity
