“Tired of the same old warhorses rehashed year after year? Amberwood is a richly satisfying collection that offers an invigorating foursome of contemporary works that show just how original a string player can get when committed to bringing great new music to the world.”
Strings December, 2007
“Both works show Sokolov’s credentials as a latter-day Rachmaninov, relishing succulent piano textures, while treating the respective string instrument idiomatically. Sokolov’s partnership with Karen Bentley Pollick is closely-knit, and she – a violinist – seems to feel quite at home on the larger instrument as well. (Indeed, the dark tone of her Vuillaume violin seems to suggest an affinity!) The whole CD, which is very attractively recorded and presented, demonstrates that it is quite possible to write good tunes in the 21st Century.”
Journal of the American Viola Society, Volume 24, Number 1
“Frequent cooperation of the musicians is apparent from their harmony. Ivan Sokolov is accompanying very sensitively and Karen Bentley Pollick performs consummately in her role as soloist.”
Harmonie No. 7, 2008
