    Loved it! I just purchased and listened to this album and can't wait to hear it again and again. The Knights may not (yet) be a household name, but they should be and will be if they can continue this high level of performance. Eric Jacobsen did a wonderful job encouraging The Knights to their strongest performance yet. Well done.

  • A pleasant discovery

    Eclectic, sublime and surreal. Great arrangements and performance. Truly more than A Second of Silence, an enjoyable, relaxing listening experience.

    Big on hype, low on delivering the goods. Nothing about this album truly stands out. Best just to skip over this. -Bz

  • A single mood through generations

    The performances here are phenomenal -- everything I have come to expect from the Knights. The curation of the album -- with its exciting juxtapositions and two cool arrangements -- adds to the fun.

    The Knights' Schubert is beautifully conceived and played. It combines a rare lightness and transparency of texture with fleet rhythmic incisiveness. The result is symphonic chamber music of the highest order. The remainder of the album, consisting of works by Satie, Glass, and Feldman, is approached and played with the same degree of idiomatic mastery as, and provides a fascinating foil to, the Schubert. In its programming and execution, the album itself is a genuine work of art. Don't miss this one!

  • Fantastic!

    The Knights have given a fresh take of some well-known and obscure classical works. HQ audio, fearless playing, and an underlying sense of joy marks this album.

  • Wow.

    Such an interesting album. Not just bits and pieces for no reason- this is a real voyage through centuries.
