"Violinist Carlos Damas and pianist Anna Tomasik are dedicated and sensitive interpreters who get the best out of this music."
The Gramophonne Magazine
"The Portuguese violinist Carlos Damas comes at the works with a big, broad sound (especially down low), a prominent vibrato that infiltrates even the shortest of notes. I love the way Damas digs deep in the 'Rigaudon' so you hear his instrument rattle. He relishes its virtuosity while pushing and pulling deliciously at the tempo with his pianist."
Luister Magazine
"Damas performs his violin excellently. This recording stands out comparatively to other recordings (Dautricourt And Pohjonen for La Dolce Vita, Kuusisto and Kärkkäinen for Ondine, Saariketty and Liu for Finland). The performance of Damas and his partner is masterful, warm-blooded."
Siebe Riedstra in OpusKlassiek
"There is rather a cross-pollination, healthy. Damas plunges into the spirit of northern hall music from Europe with a substance from the south (Latin). Glissandos provocative and languid, in the style "Zigeunerweisen", fall like a glove on this pieces. Carlos Damas and pianist Anna Tomasik understood exactly the essence of this works."
