“Leave it to Naxos to come up with some terrific chamber music by a composer most people in the Northern Hemisphere have never heard of….. The Dominion Quartet of New Zealand plays up a storm in all three selections, making a strong case for Hill’s music….an outstanding disc of discovery from down under.” Classical Lost and Found
