Album Reviews

“.Phillippe's violin work is beautifully agile and shows the dancingly Pop-accessible side of the era from which the music came. Marta is completely at ease and lucid in the context of this music and the two come across as artfully "artless" if that makes sense, just like Chaplin was in his many roles and films.”

“Quint, Aznavoorian and Bell reveal the disarming simplicity of Chaplin’s graceful and charming music, which, as the violinist says, “reaches the deepest parts of our souls.”

“Love Song, composed in 1969, was written to his wife Oona.  The song was intended for a film project called The Freak, which was never made.  Aznavoorian and Quint take turns leading the charming melody through several iterations and key changes.  In 1929 Chaplin created Beautiful, Wonderful Eyes, intending it to be used as the theme for the Blind Girl in the 1931 classic film City Lights. Unfortunately, the song never made it into the film. The lively tango is marvellously performed by Aznavoorian on the keys, while the violin soars above.”
