Grammy Award nomination - Producer of the Year, Classical, 2016
"The Formosa Quartet plays with exquisite definition ... technical brilliance and much charm."
- Classic FM
Late Romantic German composer Friedrich Gernsheim was acknowledged by Brahms as a master composer, although his highly respected music fell into obscurity after being banned by the Nazis because he was Jewish. Gernsheim’s Piano Quintet No. 2, featured on this release, is a shining example of the composer’s multi-genre output. That quintet is paired with Brahms’s immortal Piano Quintet, both presented by the Formosa Quartet and distinguished pianist Reiko Uchida with grace and drama. Together, they deliver this rich music with precision, spirit and passion.
