Reviews "En Couleur"

November 19, 2025

"Prepare to be amazed! It’s no exaggeration to say that anyone who listens to this CD will indeed be amazed, because here the name says it all. TrioColores (‘Colors’), newly crowned OPUS Klassik award winner, has made it its mission to explore the full richness of colors found in so-called barred percussion instruments, also known as mallet instruments." - Guido Krawinkel (feuilleton scout) translated from german

‍

"Sensitivity of touch and an ear for timbre and colour bring a sense of timbral magical to these reinventions of French music for a group playing marimbas, vibraphones and glockenspiels. [...] This is a completely magical disc. The trio find the wonder in the colours and timbres of a huge range of sounds, and each movement of each work is not only enchanting but takes us on a journey into different aspects of the composers' originals." - Planet Hugill (Planet Hugill, a world of classical music)
