"Their combination of outsized string sound, exciting ensemble precision, and compelling interpretation puts them at the head of the Piano Trio division in the Chamber Music Major League."
— San Diego Union-Tribune

“This was an autumnal cameo, in Sydney's winter twilight, of supremely beguiling charm and masterly musical intimacy.”
— Sydney Morning Herald
|
"With Pinchas Zukerman’s matchless musicianship and charisma at its core, this is a trio made in heaven. His South African-born wife Amanda Forsyth brings passion and formidable technique as a cellist, and Canadian pianist Angela Cheng is the dream accompanist who lives every note."
— Limelight Magazine
|
"The cleanly articulated performance was elevated by an uncommon passion, both in the tender Adagio and in the finale that shifts abruptly from sadness to joy."
— The Chicago Tribune
|
“The balance among the three was flawless and their execution seamless. Forsyth is a bodacious performer — she's doesn't do "tentative" — and it was glorious. Cheng's keyboard work was nuanced and delightful. Zukerman, meanwhile, is something of a Zen master to whom technique and expression are exact and mature. This was an auspicious start to the season.”

“Consummate and charismatic musicians, the trio made for a tight-knit chamber ensemble.”
— The Scotsman
|
“The folk-like, gypsyesque lines skipped and sparkled wildly between the two string players - whose music came flashily alive - roaring like lions, serenading like larks, swarming like bees and painting a magically vivid panorama of fresh and enormous Hungarian landscapes – it was musically intoxicating.”
— Edinburgh Guide

"Those who came to gawk at Zukerman got some great music-making in the bargain...this was a superb performance that lifted the listener out of everyday worries."
— Montreal Gazette
|
"It was remarkable how well-balanced the group sounded.”
