| |  | Vierne: Complete Chamber Music
Francois Kerdoncuff/Olivier Gardon (piano) Alexis Galpérine (violin) Yvan Chiffoleau (cello) Christian Moreaux (oboe) Odile Carracilly (viola) Pascale Zanlonghi (harp) Quatuor Phillips “The fifth release in the Timpani label's marvellous survey of Vierne's music, these two entrancing discs are packed with treasures. …it is the Piano Quintet that makes this set indispensable. Written after the death of Vierne's son, the raw emotions attest to the composer's desire to 'bury him in a roar of thunder and not in the plaintive bleating of a resigned, complacent sheep'. Emotion and technique combine to stunning effect, especially when allied, as in the other works, to first-rate performances and sound.” BBC Music Magazine, April 2006 ***** | | | (also available to download from $21.00) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.
