Press

(4.5 Stars) “The Kodaly Duo for Violin & Cello has existed since 1914; in its long existence, it has been performed by countless duos and recorded dozens of times. In its recorded history, few efforts have come close to capturing the same level of Bohemian flare as cellist Janos Starker and violinist Josef Gingold. While their performance really exemplifies all that this piece has to offer, the present recording of violinist Gil Morgenstern and Darrett Adkins comes excitingly close to capturing the same level of energy, gutturalness, and rhythmic panache . . . Both of these artists play with unbridled passion with never a sense of holding anything back. Their attacks on each note are almost brutal, yet they never demand more from their instruments than they can deliver. Intonation is superb, articulation is brilliantly matched, and the interplay between the two is seamless. If this was the only piece on the program, this disc would still be worth buying. Fortunately for listeners, there’s more.” —All Music Guide

“Morgan seems to have figured out what so many back-arching singer-songwriters can’t . . . Great songs and great singing is apparently all you need if you have the goods, and there are plenty of goods to be had here . . . with imaginative arrangements that underscore his raw, iconic singing.” —Blender Magazine

Press

“This woman’s got the goods.”
—Billboard Magazine

“This belle can belt and pen. Janita teems with vocal wattage and knows it.”
—The Village Voice

“It probably shouldn’t be allowed for someone as talented as singer-songwriter Janita to, also, be goddess beautiful. She not only writes beautifully powerful songs, but sings with such passion and conviction that it’s hard to take your eyes off her.”
—The Telegraph (UK)

“For some artists, it’s enough to be known by one name like Madonna, Prince, Sade, and Sting. Janita might be another name to add to the list.”
—PopMatters
