Schumann and Stravinsky : spring in all its forms
Music for woodwind quintet and piano

The Rite of Spring // Igor Stravinsky
for woodwind quintet and piano

Sextet op. 44//  Robert Schumann
for woodwind quintet and piano

« Two masterpieces that marked the music in brand new clothes.

The Rite of Spring by Igor Stravinsky, which caused a riot when it premiered, hasn’t aged a bit since its first performance over 110 years ago. His power and imagination, always irresistible, are wonderfully rendered in this version for woodwind quintet and piano.

Robert Schumann’s Opus 44 is known as a pillar of the chamber music repertoire in its original version for string quartet and piano. This one, for woodwind quintet and piano will henceforth occupy an equally enviable place in the chamber music repertoire.»
