Product Information

Product-Information:


In this delightful disc, chamber music rarities by Samuel Coleridge-Taylor are performed by The Nash Ensemble. The early Piano Quintet shows the precocious development of the young composer, already demonstrating the flair for melody and inexhaustible spontaneity that would become a hallmark of his later works. The astonishing Clarinet Quintet is a work of remarkable subtlety and sophistication, rhythmically exuberant and complex, and uses the ensemble in an integrated way that demonstrates the composer’s utter mastery of the genre. This is music of deep sensibility that deserves to be better known.

Rezensionen


'[Piano Quintet in G minor]… Well-crafted, with piquant harmonies (the pianist, not incidentally, is the outstanding Ian Brown who brings added class to everything he touches) … The Clarinet Quintet in F sharp minor commands the listener's full attention. Richard Holsford, the eloquent soloist, is heard at his best in the beautiful second-movement Larghetto' (Classic FM Magazine)

'There is enough mastery here and in the later Ballade for violin and piano to make highly rewarding listening. The Nash Ensemble's performances, as one would expect, are devoted and full of insight' (Daily Telegraph)

'Suave musicianship and sonic warmth … The Nash Ensemble offers a vital and intellectually stimulating accounts of these rarities and their devotion repays the listener’s curiosity many times over. The playing is fresh and vibrant, not to mention poised and erudite … not as much as a single note will disappoint' (Fanfare, USA)

'The composer's lyrical gift, rhythmic energy, and skilful use of colour and harmony are the work of a master … The Nash Ensemble does great justice to this music, with polished yet vigorous playing and superb musicianship' (American Record Guide)
