About
The original versions of Schumann’s string quartets have never been heard in recorded form. The Leipzig String Quartet discovered this repertoire gap and has now filled it with a fascinating recording on two CDs. As an encore, the four musicians present Schumann’s world-famous Piano Quintet Op.44. Their partner on the piano is Christian Zacharias, so this is an absolutely top lineup.

Working with Christian Zacharias the Leipzig Quartet turn out a performance that combines subtlety and strength on the minute expressive and grand architectural planes....For sheer joie de vivre the Zacharias-Leipzig Scherzo is hard to match.
