String sonatas nos. 1-3

"The works gathered here hail from two different sets of string quartets: the four solo quartets by Franz Anton Hoffmeister and Gioacchino Rossini's six String Sonatas ... Unlike the young Rossini, Hoffmeister gave the double bass a far more important role in his ensemble, letting it replace the first violin ... The players clearly love the music and perform it with great affection. The resonant acoustic fleshes out the sound without losing clarity. This is very intimate music making and it's almost like opening a door and listening to a private and personal event taking place ... A thoroughly enjoyable set of performances".
