5 star review for Simone's debut recital disc

Elgar  VIOLIN SONATA, CHANSON DE NUIT, etc.
Simone Lamsma/ Yurie Miura
5 Stars

"The 21-year-old Dutch violinist has won several prestigious prizes and studied at the Royal Academy of Music in London. With her Japanese pianist, she brings rich tone and immense quality to Elgar's sonata, coupled with an almost instinctive understanding of its elusive idiom. This affinity with the composer is shown again in delightful performances of 11 of his miniatures for violin and piano, including a particularly beautiful 'Chanson de Nuit' and an exhilarating Kreislerian 'La Capricieuse'."
