“…a fitting name for the vibrant string orchestra from which the conductor Eduard Schmieder elicited a lively pulse…the ensemble was particularly noteworthy for its unity of purpose and blend. It was as if the musicians’ hearts were beating to the same buoyant rhythm…lustrous, polished tone and graceful phrasing.”Vivien Schweitzer, New York Times (2007)“… an astounding demonstration of seamless and beauteous string playing… memorable, luminous, deeply moving performance…”Daniel Cariaga, Los Angeles Times (2000)“… Lead by conductor Eduard Schmieder with passion, intelligence, refinement and imagination, iPalpiti demonstrated an almost uncanny unanimity of sound and vibrato... It was especially remarkable to hear such a wide variety of individual tones emerge and then slip back into those fabulous unisons…”The Strad ( June 2009), review of the Carnegie Zankel Hall concert, New York"…[ under Mr. Schmieder’s direction] iPalpiti sprang to life as a single, singing voice.
