Piano Quintets

Piano Quintets

Following the release of two of Friedrich Gernsheims symphonies, cpo presents two piano quintets by this composer whose life was very much of European stamp. His first Piano Quintet quite audibly moves along paths marked out by Brahmss Piano Quintet in F minor, composed twelve years before. The second Piano Quintet, composed in the year of Brahmss death, is precisely in the key of B minor and 6/8 time for the first movement just as in Brahmss Clarinet Quintet certainly to be understood as paying Brahms tribute. The Bohemian theme heard in the Scherzo of op. 63 honored the works dedicatees.
