Concert review in Vijenac

In the latest issue of Vijenac, Alenka Bobinsky reviews the Quartet’s Zagreb Guitar Days concert:

Like musicians touched by a magic wand, they delight in playing chamber music. Albeit all are true virtuosi, it occurs to none of them to impose with their personal qualities.

Baroque and Rococo program during the first half of the concert, arranged and performed brilliantly enough to please even the most highbrow critic and the most passionate music conoisseur.

Complete mutual understanding of the young guitarists, absolutely coordinated openings and closings, splendidly played pianissimos and passionate, yet style congruent fortissimos left not a trace of doubt that the Quartet understood the literature they took up. It was the Baroque we love and long to hear, the Baroque sounding at moments as if played on the most precious harpsichord.
