‘This is one of Theo Verbey’s finest compositions. […] The piece’s convincing power is also due to the brilliant performance by the three members of the Concertgebouw Orchestra […] And the music itself is magnificent: fresh, without cheap nostalgia or regression, and of a caliber that triumphantly overcomes any fear of modernity.’ – ©Emanuel Overbeeke, August 2026 (originally appeared in Dutch at www.opusklassiek.nl, translated with the author’s permission by ©Eileen Stevens)
