Benjamin Britten: String Quartet No. 1; Dmitri Shostakovich: Piano Quintet

“Clifford Benson’s playing of the piano part is splendid throughout. In both the tender warmth and intensity of the Shostakovich and the luminous, mysterious colours of the Britten. The Alberni’s playing is magical . . . a most satisfying record.” Edward Seckerson – Classical Music
