The members of the Barbirolli Quartet, who first met as students at the Royal Northern College of Music, have enjoyed a meteoric rise to prominence during the last few years. Today it is regarded as one of the most enterprising young quartets to have emerged here in the UK since the millennium. Noted as much for its audacious programming as for the verve and daring it displays before live audiences, it's good to hear it on fine form on this enterprising new CD of British music." ......

"The Barbirollis give warm, idiomatic, intense performances of both works [Britten no. 2 and Bliss no. 2], at times reflecting the comment of one critic in a review who described their playing as “red-blooded”. The superb Purcell Chacony in G minor makes the perfect pendant to the Britten, while Delius’s Late Swallows (1922) rounds the disc off charmingly. A very welcome issue."
