P. Kerbusk in FonoForum 4/00: "Die Musiker um dasEhepaar Spiller spielen das Werk des 26-Jährigen mit hin-reißender Virtuosität und einem hohen Grad an dyna-mischer Intensität, Farbigkeit und Konturenschärfe."

musicweb-international.com: »This is a work, long ignored for decades, that has increasingly received recordings. Bruno Monteiro (violin), Miguel Rocha (cello) and pianist João Paulo Santos form a formidable trio and marry long-term structural goals with moments of expressive piquancy to generate the necessary dramatic light and shade in a work as youthfully intense as this. It's noticeable that they avoid excessive tempi, such as one can find in the Trio Solisti's effort on Bridge or in elements of the Fidelio Trio's recording on Resonus, where both the opening movement and slow movement are pressed quite hard – at least in relation to the Etcetera team's performance. By contrast the Portuguese trio convey the fluidity of the first movement's dramatic peaks and troughs through wistful and assured exchanges and a sculptural firmness that repays repeated listening.«
