Gautier Capucon
'Gautier Capuçon plays the cello with the control and wisdom of a much older musician. The lightness of his touch and the consistent clarity of his bow strokes
are quite admirable in themselves, but when combined with an
uncanny sweetness of tone in the higher registers they are breathtaking.'
Gramophone

Renaud Capucon
"Renaud Capuçon is one of today's outstanding violinists -- less flashy than some, but a fabulously musical player who is as remarkable a chamber player as he is a concerto soloist," wrote The Guardian in its review of the French violinist's recent Virgin Classics CD of Mozart concertos, describing the disc as "a fine achievement", while the Scottish newspaper The Sunday Herald felt that: "Capuçon's silvery tone and expressive phrasing of the slow movements ... beautifully balance his brisk and exhilarating takes on the allegros and prestos....Don't miss this one." The BBC Music website pointed out that "Capuçon's style, perhaps because of his regular chamber work, is natural, understated and perceptive; the sound of a musician happily relaxed in his skin and not feeling the need to prove any virtuosic credentials. His performance here is lithe, graceful and refined, capturing vivacious humour with luminous upper-stringed sparkle, and colouring the slower movements with warm, musical poetry."
