Schumann - Piano Works & Chamber Music IV

In this CD, the fourth volume of the complete works for the piano and for chamber music with piano, Eric Le Sage takes four monuments of Schumann's solo piano repertoire: the Humoreske Op. 20 and the Klaviersonate Op.11 (CD1), the Albumblätter (topped up by three pieces from the Klavierstücke) and the Études in the form of Variations Op.13 (CD2).The acoustic qualities of the Chauxde- Fonds Hall is caught in all its magic by Jean-Marc Laisné.This set firmly establishes Eric Le Sage and his Schumann project as a benchmark for Schumann interpreters.Vol.3 is Chamber Music Choice in the May issue of BBC Music Magazine.
