“Faust and Melnikov throw themselves into these remarkable works. The disc is valuable for rescuing the compact, breathtakingly inventive sonatas from obscurity. The quartet is similarly inspired, and performances and recording do the project proud” --Classical Music, February 2013
“The musicians bring maximum enjoyment to each work, and the performances could hardly be better, Faust and Melnikov pushing the technical capabilities of their instruments in the Sonatas, with energy, virtuosity and affection – something to truly blow away the cobwebs!” --classicalsource.com, 5th February 2013

“sensitive, expressive interpretations … They show remarkable unanimity and flair in Weber’s serene Piano Quartet, balancing Classical elegance, wit and sheer effervescence in the outer movements.” --The Strad, March 2013
“Melnikov, with exuberance and senstivity, plays a fortepiano of about 1815, and Isabelle Faust (on a Stradivarius) is his lithe, discerning and thoroughly engaging companion.” --Gramophone Magazine, March 2013
“Chamber music by Weber arrives as frequently as a blue moon. It’s almost as lovely, too, especially when Faust’s Stradivarius violin and Melnikov’s fortepiano duck and weave through these six pocket sonatas...Trinket music? Partly, yes; but very inventive, full of colour and surprises...The recording’s intimate, clear, and full-bodied: the musicians seem right in your living room.” --The Times, 19th January 2013 *****
