reviews

Another great disc from this world-leading violin duo partnership; in the notes Mr & Mrs Gelland discuss how they've maintained "sparks of creativity" over 16 years and more sharing their whole lives and musical lives.
Peter Grahame Woolf, Musical Pointers

What gave the music that extra excitement in the concert performances were the parts sung by the violinists. On the album you hear them perfectly beautifully with absolute precision in tempo, dynamics and intonation. In terms of sound and dynamics the recording is a small technical wonder of beauty.
Hans Lingblom, Östersunds-Posten

Duo Gelland play uncompromising music for curious minds. They are emotional revolutionaries with sheet music fluttering lika banners och sounds like agitatingly luring calls. Two uncompromising ambassadors with music for two violins on the repertory. Music created for curious senses and a preference for the taste of a steadfast salt in the hungry ears.
Lars Åbom, Corren
