Salvatore Accardo, Violin; Sylvie Gazeau, Violin; Alain Meunier, Cello; Franco Petracchi, Bass. “Every Time The Rossini String Sonatas Show Up, Reviewers Are Bowled Over By Their Breezy High Spirits, Freshness Of Invention And Humour; And I Happily Succumb Once Again, Especially To This Recording, Which Is A Sheer Delight. In Reviewing The Version By The Academy Of St Martin-In-Thefields (Argo ZK26-7, 12/77), TH Very Justly Praised The Whole-Hearted Brio And Spectacular Ensemble In Whirling Passage-Work Which Neville Marriner Secured From His Players; But When Performed As A Solo Quartet Of Two Violins, Cello And Bass, As Here, The Effect Is Inevitably Still Cleaner And Crisper And The Texture Pellucid. This Is How They Were Intended.” L.S. Gramophone Magazine.
