[T]he cello playing is quite special. This would be one of the best things on the label.
— Christopher Ball, Dvorak Society ,
[P]leasant romantic fare, nicely performed and generally well recorded. Davidov was a cello prodigy who… served as a professor at St Petersburg Conservatoire, played cello in a string quartet that numbered among its ranks Auer and Wieniawski, and was described by Tchaikovsky as ‘the king of all 19thcentury cellists.’ Perhaps his bestknown piece is At the fountain from his Op. 20, a charming morceau. … Davidov concertos require both considerable stamina and an attractive tone. The young, prizewinning cello virtuoso Marina Tarasova certainly weaves an elegant musical line – sweet and wellrounded. … Cellists in search of attractive encore material will also enjoy the various short pieces with piano, Op. 30 especially.
— Gramophone
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky dubbed Karl Yulievich Davydov the "tsar of cellists"
