'The Trio Mondrian inhabits two very different worlds on this excellent disc...this performance [of Shostakovich] has terrific integrity, blending bitterness and irony with the elegiac, brooding quality...The Mondrians' colours and textures in the Ravel are luminous, with delicacy and gusto achieving a fine equilibrium.' - Geoffrey Norris, Gramophone
