"The Weilersteins give a breathtakingly beautiful reading of the “Dumky” Trio, capturing its deep sorrows without ever becoming maudlin, yet eliciting the full excitement of its many contrasting passages. This is a work I had given up on; too many recordings had crossed my desk over the years, so many of them unsatisfactory. It is a special delight to welcome this unusual piece (one of Dvorák’s few instrumental ones not written in classical forms) in the performance I plan to live with. . .The listener feels that the Weilersteins understand Dvorák perfectly, placing expressiveness ahead of mere virtuosity. "
-Fanfare Magazine
