"Bieler and Tichman are expert musicians, and there's nothing that they don't give to these performances, which were recorded in 2003 by German Radio."
-Raymond Tuttle, classical.net
"With cellist Maria Kliegel, Bieler and Tichman are members of (wait for it) the Trio Tichman-Bieler-Kliegel, which was founded in 2001. Bieler and Tichman are expert musicians, and there's nothing that they don't give to these performances, which were recorded in 2003 by German Radio."
-Raymond Tuttle, classical.net
"Everything here is well performed and responsively recorded... Naxos continues to do Penderecki proud."
--Arnold Whittall, Gramophone, 06/04
"Violinist Ida Bieler's dynamic and impassioned interpretations ooze accomplishment and commitment in every bar, to say nothing of pianist Nina Tichman's robust tone and ability to sustain long lines in continuous arcs (the first sonata's Andante is a case in point)...excellent engineering...For this premiere recording of the second sonata Bieler and Tichman set high standards that future interpreters will have to work hard to match. Fine booklet notes by Richard Whitehouse add to my enthusiastic recommendation. 10/10"
