‘A dream of a string ensemble. Their arrangements
and the way that they play them are simply world class.'
Desmond Carrington, BBC Radio 2


‘Just delightful. I recommend it whole-heartedly’
Alan Titchmarsh

‘Intoxicating warmth and emotional spontaneity that is irresistible…velvet-toned, beguilingly responsive playing ’
Strad Magazine


'A truly fabulous disc! A real must-have!
A record of the year. I think you understand me.’
MusicWeb

‘…a highly polished debut disc…a collection of sophisticated arrangements…the talented Pavão Quartet never resort to superficial gimmicks, offering playing that is extremely assured with a meticulous sense of ensemble.’
BBC Music Magazine

'There are more than just five hundred renditions of HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS. I haven't heard them all, of course, but I've heard enough of them to be fairly sure that the one by your marvellous "Pavão Quartet" is the most beautiful. I wish you could have seen the expression on our faces. Dear Kerenza, it is too beautiful to be true.
First of all, the arrangement is extraordinary (as are all the arrangements).
And secondly, the performances by you four virtuosos are beyond criticism. Thank you for this treasure which I will enjoy the rest of my life.'
Hugh Martin
