"Normally, when three Canadians play a Czech on a Saturday night in Charleston (WV), it means you're watching a National Hockey League game on television. The Canadian trio gave a brilliant performance of the piece (Martinu's String Trio). It is refreshing to hear unfamiliar music anyway, but when it is played with the vigor, precision and stylistic certitude the Adaksin brought to it, it is memorable."

"Not only was the Adaskin's technical mastery never in question, they brought to the music a focus and intensity that was all the keener for its selflessness.... Always and without undue insistence, you felt, they were directing the listener to the heart of the music."
