Awards and reviews
March 2013
The Pfitzner impresses by its command of form: its tonal structures and contrapuntal textures are worthy of Brahms...In the scherzo, more a piano solo than a duo piece, Silke Avenhaus grasps her opportunities with panache and style; elsewhere, the playing is notable for the close, easy co-operation between the two artists...I can thoroughly recommend all the playing on this disc - assured, intelligent and deeply felt.
