Piano Quartets & Quintets
Quatuor Ysaye / Pascal Roge, piano
[ Double Decca / 2 CD ]
Release Date: Thursday 5 May 2005
Fauré's large musical output includes many solo piano pieces and songs but just a handful of chamber works; two violin sonatas and two cello sonatas; a string quartet; a piano trio and other small miscellaneous pieces and the four works included here: the two piano quartets and quintets.
These four major chamber works span Fauré's creative years with the earliest, the First Piano Quartet, dating from 1879 through to the latest, the Second Piano Quintet which he completed in 1921 when he was in his seventies.
Pascal Rogé, one of the greatest advocates of French piano music is joined by the Quatuor Ysaÿe in these much-acclaimed performances.
