Brahms - Piano Quintet [Schiff/Takacs Quartet]I love this double disc set, all the Brahms String Quartets o together, and a bonus of having the Piano Quintet also, here Andras Schiff joins the Takacs Quartet, i think because they're on the same Label, and of course they're all Hungarian, the booklet is wonderful [photo by David Gamble], like i've said before, light brown and blue make a great combination, the booklet of course was 'pinched' from the original release of the first two String Quartets, a much more powerful artistic statement than the booklet that accompanies these discs.
I spoke about this set last month [14th July 2010], the wonderful String Quartet 1, now it's the turn of the Piano Quintet, also in a minor key [F Minor], it shows in the first movement, full of an angry undercurrent,
Here's the first movement being played on YouTube.
