Each month, PARMA has the pleasure of not only releasing powerful works by our artists, but also seeing the positive impact that these works have on listeners. Read on for a selection of what the press had to say about the latest releases from Navona and Ansonica Records.

“The Sirius Quartet are a fine, adaptable ensemble, and contemporary music specialists.”
“A remarkably contemplative work.”
“An extremely proficient take on classical, chamber and orchestral sounds, DREAMERS again proves why Jacob’s name is synonymous with quality, timeless, moving art.”
“The performances for these works seem to be among the finest of Navona’s catalogue to date. The music may be one of the main reasons with its more accessible musical language and engaging musical colors.”
“It bears repeating from our earlier observation that Spektor’s music has its foot in art and popular song and that will make this second release a wonderful discovery for those who appreciate contemporary vocal writing if the first was overlooked.”
“The pattern is completed with impeccable production and performances. Great, great, great!”
“Masi’s performances equally focus on the reflective and nostalgic tone of many of these pieces in ways that help the listener begin to hear the connections between the modern retellings and reimagining of Brahms’ original works which are lovingly performed.”
“The album features a lively instrumental mix of global melodies and rhythms, jazz and classical influences.”
