Det engelske magasin GRAMOPHONE har i januar nummeret anmeldt vores Holmboe-CD og skriver:
"After its fine string quartets circle with the Kontra Quartet, Dacapo evidently turning its attention to the substantial body of Holmboe's remaining chamber music. This first volume gives us five representative samples spanning more than 30 years, from the genial and somewhat Nielsenesque Primavera for flute with piano trio of 1951 to the alltogether grittier Gioco for string trio and Ballata for piano quartet (1983 and 1984 resepctively).As with all Holmboe's music, there are rewards in store for anyone who delights in following lines of pure musical thought. Nothing is gratuitous or extaneous; nor can the musical character ever bee completely taken for granted. In Primavera, the austere central slow movement touches unexpected depths, while in the late works hints of humour flash across the spiky surfaces. In all such cases, Shostakovich comes to mind as a kindred spirit.
At times one might suspect that compositional resourcefullness has become the be-all-and-end-all, at the expense of more urgent communicative values. The Sonata for solo flute is no doubt a good workout for the player but remains a rather arid experience for the listener. However, the Quartetto for flute and sting trio proves once again that musical conversation is Holmboe's strong point, as it is for the exellent players on this cleanly recorded disc."
