| | | | | | | Reviews | | "Fredrickson... is undoubtedly one of the two best double-bassists I've heard. Fredrickson's strong points are his phenomenally clear tone, remarkably free of buzzing, and his ability to sing, particularly winning in the Giannini and in the Carbon. Fredrickson plays his instrument as a cello, with the ability to give shape to music in which shape isn't always easy to discern. Still, Fredrickson doesn't betray his instrument. You always know you're hearing a bass, just one brighter, more flexible, and static-free than you normally encounter." (Classical.net)
"[McKinley’s Passacaglia boasts] interesting, witty, even beautiful variations." (Classical.net)
"Lyrical… Like Giannini, Carbon aims for great emotion…As in Giannini's Psalm, much of immense interest happens in this piece." (Classical.net) |
