"The performance has the right idea in not attempting to gloss over the discontinuities [of the String Trio]...[these players] give a good sense of the way angry expression dissolves into wistful lyricism at the end...Schoenberg's voice...is heard to powerful effect."
(Gramophone)

Naxos's Robert Craft Collection has been acclaimed as 'one of the most enticing Schoenberg collections around', with Fanfare proclaiming that 'Craft outshines them all', to mention only two critical commendations. He has twice won the Grand Prix du Disque, as well as the Edison Prize for his landmark recordings of Schoenberg, Webern and Varèse, and countless other awards. Craft's consummate artistry and unique insight continue to bear fruit with this volume featuring diverse works spanning more than twenty years of Schoenberg's controversial and highly influential career.
