“Jonathan Cohler’s reputation grows by the year, and some important critics compare his genuinely unique sound and performances to those of superstars like Dinu Lipatti, Youri Egorov, and the legendary British clarinetist, Reginald Kell. (Personally, I prefer Cohler’s warm sound to Kell’s). Cohler’s tone is in fact the single most gorgeous clarinet sound I know of, and I have come to prefer it to my erstwhile favorite, Richard Stoltzman…Cohler possesses such musical integrity and taste that everything he touches seems like the last word…Run, don’t walk!”
    —Listener Magazine

“Cohler is an amazing musician—I suppose there is nothing he cannot play”
   —American Record Guide

“Paganini’s Moto Perpetuo is a virtuoso spectacular, giving not an inch to the violin original. I literally would not have believed it was possible to play a clarinet this rapidly with such beauty of tone…this disc is a must for clarinet lovers.”
    —Fanfare
