Reviews
"This trio was a relatively early piece of Martin`s, composed in 1925, but thoroughly characteristic in its sobriety, even when dealing with such irrepressible material as the jig themes of the finale. Indeed, the mix of sensitive restraint and unbuttoned vim - of pondering mind and tapping foot - gives the work a quite particular character. It should be played more often - if it could be played with the Osiris`s breadth of spirit." - New York Times March 27, 2002

Superb Performances by Dutch Trio - a delight
"This is one of the most enjoyable chamber music programs I`ve heard in a long time. The Osiris Trio play with an irrestitible combinations of elegance & refined tone on the one hand, and rhythmic vitality & sheer zest on the other. They communicate a spontaneous love for what they`re doing, yet at the same time these interpretations are clearly the result of much thought and hard work. The result is sheer pleasure, and they`ve been recorded in fine sound. Highly recommended!" - Amazon.com February 15, 2004
