In his Piano Quartet and Quintet, Schumann revisited the frameworks inherited from Schubert and Beethoven to create astonishingly innovative structures. Their grandiose musical and emotional gestures place these works among his supreme achievements. The prestigious artists assembled here, with their extensive experience of performing Schumann's chamber music and concertos, do full justice to his imaginative world.
"By any standards this is chamber music playing of the highest class; the fact that it's performed on instruments of the period only makes it more satisfying." BBC Music Chamber Release of the Month Jan 2024
