5 out of 5 stars Unbeatable.......2003-07-12

I've seen these ladies work before, it's always a great treat. Not only are they fabulous musicians, but great master class coaches, affiliated with the Chamber Music Connection, and, absolutely hysterically funny. Highly recommended

4 out of 5 stars excellent in concert.......2003-02-19

Just saw the Cavani quartet in concert in Rhinebeck, NY. They played the Bartok quartet #4. This well oiled machine is scary!
They also played the "American" quartet by Dvorak, which lagged somewhat in its final 2 movements, but that's probably because I think Dvorak can be rambling in his romantically bohemian sort of way. What do I know?. But the Bartok-this piece was definitely in your face!! I thought it sounded like chamber music for vampires! You must check these guys (actually 4 women) out. They have been quartet-in-residence at the Cleveland Institute of Music for the last 10 years, so you know they must be very good

5 out of 5 stars exciting ,full of energy........1998-10-27
