TAS Audiophile Demo Disc! TAS Recommended! Rated a 'Best Audiophile Label Recording' in the November 2009 issue of The Absolute Sound!
David Chesky's Urban Concertos are performed by the Symphony Orchestra of the Norrlands Opera conducted by Rossen Gergov.
"This is urban music; it reflects the sounds of my city. I write about what I know, see and hear - the Upper West Side, Central Park on a summer weekend and Greenwich Village on a loud Friday night. I do not live on some quaint idyllic country farm, I live in the city that never sleeps! It is a hard-driving concrete jungle that pulsates around the clock." - David Chesky
"There is real substance here, and a dynamic creative personality at work. I'm very interested to hear how Chesky will follow this achievement, and I hope that the wait won't be too long." - ClassicsToday.com, David Hurwitz
"If you love classical music, you have got to hear Chesky's new recording-and if you don't love classical music that might be because you haven't heard anything as fresh and lively as Chesky's compositions." - Stereophile Magazine
