This is a glorious release - both works are melodically rich, beautifully played and spaciously recorded. An absolute must for all lovers of chamber music in the great classical tradition. This'll be a candidate for my 'Chamber Music Recording of the Year' for certain.

Hats off once again to Oliver Triendl - and his talented colleagues, of course.

I see he wrote a Piano Concerto, (Op. 12) so an early work. Could be interesting?

Again, I concur with Alan: this is well above average stuff.   You can't go wrong.

I've begun with the Quartet which is, as everyone has written, meltingly lovely music. Impeccably played and recorded too; it sounds as if it's as rewarding to play as it is to listen to. Top marks all round.
