| Review | "...David Baker's Two Cello String Quintet followed, and proved to be a romantic work with some 20th-Century devices thrown in. As always with Baker, the work was eclectic and conservative, but in this instance his writing had a special sense of urgency that grabbed one's attention and kept it focused on the piece..." --James Underwood, The Herald-Telephone |
