The album Bohemia Express by the St. George Quintet received a very positive review by Richard Bratby in Gramophone, ‘The World’s Best Classical Music Reviews’.
Some quotes:
‘The St George Quintet are a smart, musicianly team with a clean ensemble sound and a deft, springy rhythmic sense. There’s a Beethoven-like energy to the scherzos in both the main works here…’
‘… this is an engaging and enjoyable disc.’
‘… it really feels at its best in the melancholy afterword: a performance of Suk’s St Wenceslas Meditation in which the ensemble’s blend of tension, deliberation and expressive understatement seems to find exactly the right balance of tragedy and pride.’
