About
This new double-album by pianist Lars Vogt, violinist Christian Tetzlaff and cellist Tanja Tetzlaff includes some of Franz Schubert's greatest works of chamber music, including his Piano Trios and the Arpeggione Sonata in breath-taking interpretations. Pianist Lars Vogt tragically passed away on September 5, 2022 due to a serious illness before this album of Schubert’s chamber music was released. This album stands as a testament of his outstanding chamber musicianship together with his long-time chamber music partners Christian Tetzlaff and Tanja Tetzlaff. “If not much time remains, then it’s a worthy farewell. - - Incomprehensible. Such expression. Such fragility, such love.”

“… The musicians really take their time here - a poignant reminder that our musical journeys are meant to be savoured.”
The Sunday Times – Top 10 Albums of 2023
“…Their performances have an extraordinary atmosphere: no sentimentality, but a sense of close friends appreciating every moment of making music together while they can.”
Winner of the Chamber Music category
“…there is much to admire, and fans of the pianist will certainly want to have these performances…”
Performance ***** Recording *****
“… This very well recorded collection is one to treasure.”
“… fine as the playing of the Tetzlaffs is, appropriately it is Vogt’s wonderfully unshowy, rhythmically crisp and never overbearing playing that seems to characterise these outstanding performances, from his whisper-quiet pianissimos to the most forceful triple fortes. The strings match his wonderful dynamic range, too; the music flows naturally, without a moment of contrivance or artificiality, or any hint of sentimentality…. There are, of course, already many fine performances of these works on disc, from every generation of performers, but among recent versions there are none better than these.” *****
