The UK’s Gramophone magazine this month made Up-Close its “must see” DVD of the month, describing it as “undoubtedly the most impressive yet” of Disquiet’s four releases so far. “The way these worlds [of film and concert platform] constantly alternate on the way to their climactic superimposition … turns an outwardly abstruse conception into an engrossing and unsettling experience.”
This rave review follows others elsewhere in Europe. The Dutch magazine ‘Luister’ has also given the disc a perfect 10 out of 10, and the German web magazine Klassik.com wrote a five-star review earlier this year, praising the work, its interpretation and recording quality.
