"Das in Salzburg gegründete Constanze Quartet ... hält sein hohes Niveau ... ungebrochen. Seine Lust an der Wiederentdeckung zu Unrecht 'vergessener" Quartett-Literatur führt auch hier wieder zu einem rundum befriedigenden, musikalisch hochengagierten Ergebnis, das aufnahmetechnisch ebenso überzeugt. Strukturell klar und mit jederzeit nachvollziehbarer, empathischer Emotionalität, die dabei nie zur Übertreibung neigt, erschliessen die Musikerinnen Mayers Werke exemplarisch. Einmal mehr erweist sich die Beschäftigung mit dieser wohl bedeutendsten deutschen Komponistin des 19. Jahrhunderts als beglückende Erfahrung".

"Chamber choice: Whatever the impulse, the result is a joy to discover. Mayer is thought to have written seven quartets, three of which, from the 1850s, appear on this wonderful recording. The Constanze Quartett has done a fine job in showing this music off at its best, with sensitive, handsome playing, beautifully recorded ... Terse and melancholic, it's a quartet that reveals a powerful creative spirit".

"The north German composer Emilie Mayer seems to have turned to chamber music in Berlin in the mid-1850s, largely ... out of frustration at the neglect of her symphonies and orchestral music. Certainly, the three quartets here are audibly the work of a highly experienced composer in full command of her own compositional voice ... The Constanze Quartet sound as if they've lived with this music. Fast tempos are taut and propulsive, and there's a natural, expressive ebb and flow to the slow movements ... The music more than speaks for itself".
