Glorious Romantic Cello,
By A Customer
This review is from: Arpeggione Sonata (Audio CD)
Maria Kliegel is a superb musician, and her albums of mid-romantic cello sonatas, especially in collaboration with Kristen Merschner, are wonderful for their color and expressiveness as well as their precision and sheer beauty of tone. This album is no exception. The cellist and pianist join in their obvious enjoyment of pieces that (following Beethoven's lead) involve a cooperative venture. The Schubert Sonata is close to the best in the catalog--equal to the legendary Rostropovich/Britten. (The latter are drier and more reflective, while Kliegel/Merschner are more flowing and gorgeous in sound.) And the generous offering of Schumann's pieces makes this an irresistable album. The recorded sound is excellent.

Best Version of Schumann Piano & Cello,
By Peter Lorenz Artle - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Arpeggione Sonata (Audio CD)
I first heard this album about nine years ago through my girlfriend at that time, and it captivated my spirit and whole being right away. The Schumann on this album is perhaps my favorite music by the composer, and Schubert's Arpeggione Sonata with its deep quality is both joyous and perhaps painful at the same time.Since then I've heard some other versions of the Schumann that are certainly good, but none manage to bring out the playfulness, when called for like this version. Additionally, these two musicians certainly bring out the more reflective expressive passages of the music itself. The sound of these two musicians as well as their chemistry is just unbelievable, and even after hearing Steven Isserlis' version with Christoph Eschenbach (who by the way is probably my favorite cellist) I'm still more sold on this version. The Schubert is great, but I've heard other versions as good or perhaps even better, but the Schumann is unsurpassable - get it you won't regret it! Peter Lorenz Artle |
