This week “CD of the Week” on Leipzig-based regional cultural broadcaster MDR FIGARO is Tobias Koch’s recording of works by Robert and Clara Schumann, performed on an 1852 Pierre Erard grand piano.
“Tobias Koch has truly done justice to his name as a ‘sound explorer’ and ‘sound discoverer.’ His rendition of the Schumanns’ music opens up a panoramic vista of poetic beauty … his enthralling performance and the recording engineer’s keen sense of detail make each measure of this Schumann disc a special experience.”
