Bernhard Päuler

The impetuous, manic-depressive work, which in parts does not deny its great model Beethoven, is quite suitable to make the chamber music legacy of the great violinist feel at home again on the podium...

A ravishing virtuoso duo, often reaching the fullness of tone of a quartet, by a master who grew up in Spohr's school. Podium-effective.

Through the quartet version with concertante double bass, the violoncello gains more dominance in the melodic line and enhances the dark sonorous timbre of the work.

Few masters from the Lombard violin school wrote as brilliantly for the viola as Alessandro Rolla, whose op.18 is the last of his 78 duos for violin and viola required reading.

A feast of brilliant, charming noblesse is offered by these 5 movements stemming from the spirit of Biedermeier cheerfulness. A must for every string quintet.
