A rave review for the new Tokso album Cor Amant on Norwegian Broadcasting today: reviewer Kjetil Bjørgan calls the album "a home run" (Norwegian: innertier), and states that "I like it. I like it a lot! These are really good musicians who give it all, topping original and well written music with virtuosity and a true joy of playing."

Norwegian national newspaper Vårt Land has also a good review of the album:
"Tokso is a string quartet out of the ordinary, and from the moment you start listening to their album, you hear that they have a sound that is entirely their own. (...) They sound very comfortable in each other's company, and there is a nice coherence of the tunes on the album."
Reviewer Marianne Lystrup describes the music as spanning rock'n roll folk music and meditative, beautiful moods.
Cor Amant has also received good reviews in Norwegian regional newspapers Telen, Oppland Arbeiderblad and Varden.
