Critical reception
The quartet's recording of Prokofiev's String quartets for Dynamic received very favourable reviews. Writing for The Strad, Julian Haylock stated: "Throughout even the thorniest passages they retain absolute technical composure, knife-edge ensemble and remarkable intonational accuracy". The same recording was praised for its "mischievous alacrity" by Jerry Dubbins in Fanfare Magazine. Robert Cummings of ClassicalNet stated that the recordings of the Prokofiev were "at least as good as the best of them".
