Classica, Zelenka sonatas CD review, october 2024
“B flat is an ideal key in terms of fingering and range for the oboe and the two sonatas in that key – the expansive K454 and the genial K378 – come off exceptionally well […]. The two-movement E minor Sonata, K304, presents a different side of Mozart, its underlying unease vividly communicated by these two players – the brief outbreak of bronzed E major in the utterly un-minuet-like Tempo di minuetto a true time-stands-still moment.”

“The duo performance by Olivier Stankiewicz and Jonathan Ware in the magnificent sonics at the Morgan Library was a feast of amusing trick endings, vivid color, stunning clarity.”
