Letter from the M° Renato Zanettovich
Last April I was able to attend a concert given by the Quartetto di Venezia, in its new formation, at the Fondazione Cini in Venice in a programme which included Beethoven’s Opus 132.
I must say how profoundly impressed I was by the quartet’s performance; to me the Quartetto di Venezia is, today in Italy, the quartet which is most akin to my musical sensitivity.
I’d like to put a word in favour of these artists, who, having reached uttermost maturity in their artistic career, revive the great string quartet repertoire through performances of the highest quality.
I wish the Quartetto di Venezia all the success it deserves.

Letter from the M° Eugene Drucker
I was very impressed by the elegance, technical assurance and stylistic feeling that the Quartetto di Venezia brought to their recording of the Cherubini Quartets.
They made the most convincing possible case for these rarely heard works.
The Quartet also performed and recorded Curt Cacioppo's evocative "Impressioni Venexiane" with passion, a wide palette of colors and total commitment.
This is a fine ensemble.
