Reviews:

 "Vienna Waltz Ensemble will be a revelation to those whose contemporary notions about the waltz have been formed by best-selling crossover artist Andrew Rieu."
-The Alert

"Here are some red-blooded sounds in 3/4 time. The melodies are sweet without being saccharin and the rhythms lilting without being listless ... the perfect pendant to Appalachia Waltz."
-Billboard

"This is an extraordinary example of artistic dedication, and it has borne fruit in the stylish, highly musical, and obviously affectionate playing you can hear on this disc."
-NetRadio (by Bill Parker)

Flourish

Once again popular names such as Strauss and Haydn are found keeping company with the less known composers, such as Gregora and Pössinger. Magical and timeless music.

Reviews:

"I have enjoyed listening to it, and heartily recommend it to others. The combination of two bright treble instruments with a single deep bass is surprising at first, but it wears very well. I consider the sound to be state-of-the-art, over my big system it sounds as if two very fine violinists and a superb double bassist are performing in that magic space between two large speaker systems. For me, then, this disc is both very special - there is nothing quite like it among my thousands of recordings - and a provider of highly agreeable listening besides."
- Fanfare (by Robert McColley)

"This ensemble is in the old tradition, made up of two violins and one double bass, and they play with precision and verve, making this CD (as well as their previously released debut album) irresistible. The performances are flawless, recorded with a warm, delicious sonority. The VWE make you want to dance. A must for your collection."
-An Australian Fan

 "This is one of those programs with pieces you might never get to hear in this lifetime, played with tender loving care by the VWE."
-A New Hampshire Fan
