zur CD Joseph Leopold Eybler; String Quintet & String Trio op.2 (MDG 603 1321-2)

„Die neue CD mit Werken von Onslows Zeigenossem Eybler ist hitverdächtig. Und was kann einem Besseres passieren, als wenn man ein neues Werk in einer so hervorragenden Interpretation kennen lernt. Das Zusammenspiel gelingt hervorragend, hier haben sich wirklich fünf Gleichgesinnte gefunden. Sehr einfühlsam wird musiziert. Ein wunderbarer, warmer Streicherklang.“

„Les musiciens du quintette sont excellent et on admirera le bon gout du contrebassiste, qui n´en fait jamais trop. Une superbe découverte !“

„I suppose so this recording is worth its weight in gold in helping to revive the name of this Viennese composer whose large output has still to see the light of day. Maybe MDG might contemplate in giving us one of his sublime masses some day. The Quintetto Momento Musicale (...) deliver these happy pieces with a youthful zest that is both engaging and infectious, and all credit to them for their strong advocacy of this neglected but captivating composer.“

„it makes great listening. And again, the performances are excellent.“

As fine as Eybier's music may be, the real stars of the production are the performers and sonics. A modern Instrument quintet, it offers historically informed, stylish, and perfectly balanced performances having minimum vibrato and a stately/graceful demeanor ideal for Eybier's chamber works. Usually l feel that period Instrument groups present a more idiomatic picture of Classical era music, but l doubt that the interpretations of Quintett Momento Musicale can be improved upon. l will surely be following the future paths of this exceptional instrumental group and intend on snapping up any future recordings. As for the sonics, they are fabulous and feature a wonderful depth and clarity along with separate sound corridors for each Instrument that allows listeners to savor every musical line of Eybier's music.                           In conclusion, this new MDG recording is exemplary in all respects. Anyone who loves the chamber music of Mozart and Haydn will likely derive great satisfaction from the music and performances, even those who favor period Instruments in this type of repertoire. Quintett Momento Musicale also has an MDG disc on the market of Georges Onslow string quintets that l urge readers to investigate. This is a marvelous chamber music group, and the Eybler disc will receive strong consideration as one of my MusicWeb Discs of the Year 2005.“
