We are thrilled to share that our violinist Charlie Siem and our conductor Oleg Caetani have been featured in The Sunday Times' prestigious roundup: “The best classical albums of 2025 so far.”
Their album “Brahms & Enescu”, released by Signum Classics, was selected by critics as one of the year’s finest classical releases.

The feature praises Siem's interpretation of Brahms’s mighty Violin Concerto, performed with the Philharmonia Orchestra under the baton of Oleg Caetani, highlighting the forward drive and passion of the performance. The review also celebrates the inclusion of a rare 1903 cadenza by George Enescu, and encores featuring works by Enescu, such as Ballade, Aria and Scherzino—a beautiful conclusion to what is described as “an obviously desirable album.”

This acknowledgment from one of the most authoritative voices in UK media is a significant achievement and a testament to Charlie and Oleg’s artistry and growing influence in the international classical scene.
