“His technically secure playing displays a real feeling for the pieces’ ever-changing colours and for the logic leading one phrase into another, his tiny rhythmic adjustments never disrupting the flow.” BBC Music Magazine

After a notable Debussy recital hailed by the international press, Nelson Goerner continues his collaboration with Zig-Zag Territoires in the company of another composer: Robert Schumann. On the programme: two emblematic works from Schumann’s universe: the Etudes Symphoniques, Op. 13 (including the posthumous etudes) and Kreisleriana, Op. 16, plus a short piece about which Schumann said that it was ‘the most difficult piece ever written’: the Toccata, Op. 7.

This new recording clearly demonstrates the fantastic range of Nelson Goerner’s talent, felicitously combining a highly rigorous approach; exceptional generosity and richness of sound.
