on the short list of the most beautiful recordings of Dvorak's chamber music for winds... Produced, engineered, edited, and mastered in utterly natural sound by Richard Price, this disc is as good as it gets in the woodwind world."

" Supporting Arad’s artistry is the beautifully natural quality of the sound recording, which was made by producer-engineer Richard Price of Candlewood Digital. Interestingly, this was the same person who engineered the earlier recording of the Goldbergs by American pianist Ronald Hawkins, also released on the MSR label. The sound quality is so fine in both instances that it brings out the distinctive character of the instruments used, a Schimmel for Hawkins and a Steinway for Arad. "

"
The master sounds fantastic. I was stunned when I heard it. The definition of the instruments is spectacular, the strings sounds much better. Everything sounds wonderful."
Robert Raines
composer
"
I just finished listening to the final edit. It's sensational! This recording has taught me how to listen to records. The sound you have captured is so perfect and life-like that I'm able to return to the exact space where I was, and find myself reacting in exactly the same way I was reacting to the real sound, as I was playing in the Academy. So every interpretive decision and dynamic nuance sounds exactly as I conceived it right then and there, and that's what I hear again as I reproduce it ... I know of no better piano sound on a record!.. You are truly a master! The sound is absolutely ravishing."
Alberto Reyes
Piano soloist
Tchaikovsky & Leventritt Laureate

J.D. Scrimgeour, poet

deep trouble without your help."
