REVIEWS
"[The Trio by Lowell Liebermann] is the most-successful work on the CD, although all the pieces feature intriguing elements that show their composers’ abilities to work in small-ensemble forms. Romie de Guise-Langlois, Dmitri Atapine and Hyeyeon Park perform quite well together, with sensitivity to the nuances of the music and to the requirements of small-group interplay."
