Free Music Review: Brilliant!
Hit: 5 Stars
A cracking recording of a cracking performance!
The Menahem Pressler we have known and loved for so many years is on his usual form here. The Emersons, whose performances are not always as consistent as their reputation sometimes would have it, really are on song for this CD so it is a wonderful offering.
Both the Quintet and the Quartet represent Schumann at his best and most accomplished - they are extremely satisfying works.
This is a great CD -a "must have".
Schumann: Op. Nos. 44 & 47 Poster
Schumann's Piano Quintet is one of the world's (and my) favorite pieces of chamber music. But the less-outgoing Piano Quartet eventually reveals its secrets, too, and it's another wonderful piece. These are fascinating performances. Menaham Pressler, on leave from the Beaux Arts Trio, blends his Old World charm with the New World energy of the Emerson Quartet. The result is a near-ideal balance of power and grace, and there is even some old-fashioned portamento (sliding between notes) to be heard in the strings. It's hard to think of anyone whose taste extends beyond the Baroque era who won't be pleased and moved by this disc. --Leslie GerberClassical Music CDs
