'Sad to say, in our supposedly enlightened times, neither Alessandro
Rolla, Director of La Scala Orchestra (1802-1833) and prolific
Bohemian composer of operas, symphonies, concertos, choral works and
chamber music, nor Johann Kalliwoda get much attention or recognition.
For the most part their scores gather dust.
'In all three works the two featured artists, Vaughan Jones (violin)
and Reiad Chibah (viola) work together with seasoned insights and
faultless empathy. Jones (born 1970) began playing the violin at the
age of eight, later going on to the Birmingham Conservatoire and Royal
College of Music. Chibah (born 1972) attended the Purcell School and
Royal College of Music where he won all the undergraduate viola and
string chamber music prizes. Jones plays on plays a modern violin by
Martin McLean of Moneymore, Northern Ireland; similarly Chibah uses a
modern instrument by Polish luthier Jan Bobak.'
- Howard Smith, whose illustrated review is featured in today's Music
& Vision Magazine
