The comparison of the 4 Seasons with the legendary recording of the Kremerata Baltica and Gidon Kremer is not quite so blatant, but in the end I still prefer the Cotik recording because of its rhythm and its colors, which are more genuine, richer and more finely differentiated than what I hear in the Kremer recordin

The CD recording is his seventeenth in ten years, yet no sign of fatigue is evident when his passion for the material translates into performances of immense appeal…Cotik invests the material with so much life. Listening to him play is never less than a pleasure, and all twelve pieces are brought vividly and expressively to life.
