Like the finest cellist tackling these suites, he plays with spontaneity and ease, as if he were making up the music as he goes along. The excellence of Muzyk's performance makes a strong case for a well-played transcription and may even win over skeptics for whom the idea of a hornist playing these pieces is nothing short of blasphemous. The recorded sound is warm and spacious and has a resonance that nicely approximates the sustained ringing of a cello's strings.' - (Four Stars) - All Music Guide

Muzyk is an extraordinarily fine hornist; his tone is warm and full, his technique is impeccable, and his playing is completely secure. He made these arrangements himself, and he even manages to make the cello's multiple stops persuasive on the horn, treating them as grace notes. The result can be jaw-droppingly virtuosic.
