”Johan Dalene claims a level of tonal distinction that many of his peers, even the best of them, lack: he knows how to use vibrato and portamento in pursuit of a singing line (he’s no mere imitator of past players), and when it comes to brief morceaux, such as most of these are, he invests each phrase with a wealth of feeling and style.”
