These 1970s recordings make their first appearance on CD in this compilation and are masterfully performed by the Beaux Arts Trio and Walter Trampler. Dvorak's two piano quartets have lain in the shade of his glorious Op. 81 Piano Quintet, but where this composer's chamber music is concerned, beautiful surprises await the listener who steps off the beaten path. The music is rich and colourful and the performers capture the full range of sonority these works offer. “The Beaux Arts Trio plus Walter Trampler deliver a fine performance, with their typically excellent ensemble balance and a particularly flowing and cogent account of the magnificent central variation movement [of the First Piano Quartet]” Classics Today | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Dvorak: Cello Concerto & New World Symphony
This coupling presents Heinrich Schiff and Colin Davis' mellow reading of Dvorak's Cello Concerto, recorded in 1980, with Dorati's earlier 1959 Concertgebouw traversal of the 'New World' Symphony - a veritable fire and brimstone reading of this popular work. Both works were recorded in the fabled Concertgebouw's main hall. “Schiff ... matches the superb accompaniment of Sir Colin Davis in combining a measure of individual poetry with a generally fresh and direct approach. So the second subject with Schiff is easy and songful...it is Schiff who implies deeper emotions, as he does too in the slow movement."” Gramophone Magazine | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
