Mortensen Quartet - Piano Quintet / Piano Quartet [New CD]

Description: Mortensen Quartet - Piano Quintet / Piano Quartet [New CD] Artist: Mortensen Quartet Title: Piano Quintet / Piano Quartet Condition: Format: CD Release Date: 2020 Label: Lawo Classics UPC: 7090020182117 Genre: Classical Artists The new release from Nils Anders Mortensen and the Engegård Quartet is devoted to Schumann's quartet and quintet for piano and strings. The works were composed at the same time, side by side, and the listener can hear definite similarities in both structure and mood, but also distinct differences. Both works contain vigorous and expressive outer movements, in which inspiration from Mozart's vitality and Bach's counterpoint is combined with Schumann's own imaginative signature in both dreamy and dramatic sections that follow each other in rapid succession. The scherzos in both works are virtuosic, with sharply contrasting middle sections. But the quintet contains a movement "in modo d'una marcia", in march style, solemn enough to be a funeral march, and both poetic and fiery in nature. As for the quartet, it has a cantabile movement with an immortal cello melody. The piano quartet and the piano quintet are cornerstones of the Romantic chamber music literature and contain some of Schumann's most deeply personal musical moods. With his critically acclaimed record releases and concerts as soloist with the principal Norwegian orchestras, Nils Anders Mortensen has distinguished himself as one of Norway's leading pianists. He is employed as state musician in Finnmark County and is active as freelancer. Formed under the midnight sun in Lofoten in 2006, the Engegård Quartet has rapidly become one of Norway's most sought after ensembles, known for it's bold and fresh interpretations of the classical repertoire. The quartet has attracted international acclaim and performs regularly in Norway and abroad.Copyright DirectToU LLC. All Rights Reserved.
