Far from the dark, tortured image often associated with his music, the works on this album testify to an astonishingly serene period in Schumann’s life. A fine subject for this first album by the Hanson Quartet for harmonia mundi, whose members are partnered by Adam Laloum for a thrilling reading of a masterpiece of the Romantic repertory: the Piano Quintet.

“Plenty of accomplishment on display”
David Threasher – The Strad – September 2024
“…the consistency of balance and the thoughtful, synchronized interpretation across all musicians become evident. As with Quatuor Hanson’s previous Haydn project, not all listeners will agree with every interpretative decision. However, the results are consistently engaging and warrant repeated listening.”
