"... an exceptionally talented group... With bows flying and notes swirling, this quartet has a bright future ahead." -- Ponca City News (Feb. 2022)

"The Balourdet put all of its cards on the table at the beginning of the evening with the Debussy Quartet, playing with warm precision, making dramatic dynamic contrasts, and reinforcing crescendos with subtle increases in tempo. Ensemble members got out of the way of the multiple mini-solos that were beautifully integrated into the fabric of the first movement, and generally played with a single mind." -- Cleveland Classical (Oct. 2022)
