‘His playing is bright, sometimes witty and always technically secure. Here, with the admirable help of violinist Leila Josefowicz and cellist Carter Brey, he has recorded four Chopin chamber works … listening to that Largo, as played expansively by Brey, I wonder why the piece isn’t more widely performed … the playing here is warm, secure, and sympathetic. Brey is the principal cellist of the New York Philharmonic, Josefowicz a prizewinning violinist with an expertise in contemporary music. Both deserve the acclaim they have received’ (Fanfare, USA)

'Ohlsson brings a phenomenal variety of expression and depth of characterisation to these exquisite miniatures - an approach that manages to capture the folk elements of the composer's style to quite hypnotic effect' (BBC Music Magazine)
