"I’ve had a listen to a few alternatives…including Isaac Stern with Daniel Baremboim and Lydia Mordkovitch, but this duo pretty much ticks all the boxes"
"t was clear that the Argentinian-born Cotik has Piazzolla’s music in his blood. It was to be expected that he would be able to exploit everything that these arrangements require technically. But more importantly, he knew how to capture the spirit of the music, from subtle sensuality and longing to fierce passion and supreme virtuosity."
"this is one of the great Piazzolla discs, and in perfect sound quality, I urge you to buy it."
"Warmly and sensitively played with beauty of tone, Cotik… captures the essence of Mozart in finely spun tone and sensitive contrasts in dynamics, rhythmic integrity, and clear phrasing. Their deeply felt rendition of this purest of music, from the carefree early sonatas to the more dramatic later opuses, is a model of transparency and genuine emotion."
"His sound is pure, distinguished by perfect tuning, and characterized by instrumental virtuosity"
"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 recording"
"His amazing technical skill and artistic know-how…create an indelible interpretation of Bach’s music…Cotik’s combines impeccable technique and an intuitive artistry to fashion a mesmerizing interpretation of these pieces."
"This album…immediately stands out as a recording of excellent quality. Equipped with a refined technique, Cotik interprets these masterpieces of Bach´s genius with a deep sense of style thanks to an attention to phrasing"
