"Vurdering: Ugens cd" - "Fire mand udgør Den Danske Strygekvartet, som mere end nogensinde folder sig ud. Hvor fantastisk godt de spiller, kan du høre på Ugens Cd ... Det er musik, som en topkvartet simpelthen skal kunne mestre perfekt. Det gør Den Danske Strygekvartet også - med klarhed og dynamik, kombineret med en særlig art afspændt glæde, der bestemt ikke er standard!".

"Det kan godt være, at de fire musikere i Den Danske Strygekvartet ser sjuskede ud. Deres musik er det ikke. Den gnistrer og ryger af fart og energi, men det er en ekstremt kontrolleret vildskab ... Brahms strygekvartetmusik ... spillet helt forrest på beatet med livet som indsats ... Tonen i Haydns stykke med tilnavnet Lærkekvartetten er ren og skær og letfodet. Med et bølgende, gyldent skær over sig. Og så er den vemodig og elegant på samme tid ... Der behøver ikke gå fem år før den næste skive".

"The players could perhaps have made more of the music's drama. In all other respects, however, this is a fine performance, with an exhilarating account of the scurrying moto perpetuo finale ... The Brahms impresses by its warmth and Romantic ardour, and the quality of the recording does the playing full justice".

"The Danish String Quartet ... still have the puppyish energy they had 11 years ago, but now that enthusiasm has the lustre of maturity that was missing in their earliest recordings of the Nielsen quartets ... These works are both virtuoso in their own way ... and is given its own validity and bounce by the energy with which it is playes ... The overaching feeling one gets when listening to the Haydn is of light and space - a sense that is carried over to the Brahms, but perhaps with less reason ... You really are compelled to listen with keener ears, which is ultimately what this work really needs".
