CD: “Mozart”

CD: 'Mozart'


 

“The listener becomes almost addicted to the tonal quality. The fascination increases from work to work.” (Klaus Mohr writing about this CD in the Süddeutsche Zeitung)
Enjoy the well-known Sonata for Two Pianos in D (K.448), written by Mozart at the age of 25, and the exuberance and early mastery of his first piano sonatas for four hands - in B (K.358), in D (K.381) and in C (K.19d).

CD: “Live from the Wartburg”

CD: 'Live auf der Wartburg'


 

Experience the unmistakable atmosphere of a live concert with a programme ranging from Schubert's polonaises and his engaging late work, the Allegro "Storms of Life" (Lebensstürme), to the charming Dolly Suite by Gabriel Fauré and the rousing conclusion with Dvorák's Slavonic Dances and the Hungarian Dances by Brahms. Encore!
