The Basel Chamber Orchestra I TEMPI has chosen the composer Othmar Schoeck for its second GENUIN CD. The title says it all: Gevorg Gharabekyan and his musicians take us on a dreamlike summer night all the pieces possess a lightness and cordiality unusual for Schoeck: a wonderful suite, a fascinating cello concerto, and an enchanting pastorale. The string sound of the style-conscious ensemble is supple but captivating. The finest ramifications of late Romantic music are traced. One can only hope that this great CD will contribute to a Schoeck Renaissance outside the Confederation his music deserves it!
Pizzicato
"In their forceful playing I Tempi and soloist Christophe Croisι care for a rather big sound."
Review in Pizzicato from April 2018
Musicweb International
"These are predominantly expressive works, often high on passion and yearning, with occasional forays into a dark and tortured world. ... Lovers of late-Romantic music looking for something of high quality but out of the standard repertory should not hesitate with this Schoeck album Summer Night."
Review by Michael Cookson in Musicweb International, March 2018
