Classical Net‘s Brian Wigman has a fantastic new review for our Brahms & Schumann: The Piano Quintets recording with Joyce Yang:
“This disc is nothing short of a delight, beautifully projected chamber music in deliciously clear sound. The Alexander String Quartet…play magnificently here, and young pianist Joyce Yang proves more than a mere partner. As a way to get both works on a single disc, it doesn’t get much better than this. … Yang plays so colorfully, so whimsically…Her colleagues are equally expressive, and the sound is crystal clear. This is great music making, but also music making that sounded like it was a genuinely good time. There is something to be said for that, especially in today’s market of overblown superstars and indifferent recordings. … Yang and her collaborators clearly love this music…everything here is a remarkable achievement. Great packaging compliments a very fine and intelligently-themed chamber program. Superb.” —Brian Wigman, Classical Net
