According to the NTY critic, in his playing of the Mozart, recently. Care to interpret/translate that for me?

He also said that Frost was "young". The man is 41 years old (born December, 1970). Not exactly a geezer but he has been around for a while. IMO anyone over 35 would not qualify as young.
He also wrote the Mozart concerto contained cadenzas, which, of course, it does not.

OH, it is official then. Frost is old enough to perform the Brahms sonatas in public.

"Sharply focused warm tone": Sounding like a metal dagger blade, lightly warmed in the fire, stabbing into your chest.
"Young": Was not alive when the composition was written.
There, that was easy!

I see adjectives like dark, bright, warm, cool, brilliant, mellow, et cetera tossed about here to vaguely describe a player's "sound" rather frequently. Do you find it odd that a music critic would also use these terms?

If it was sharply focused then how did blend so well with the orchestra according to the critic?
His casual relationship with notated rhythm drives me somewhat crazy.
