Schubert: Sonate D821 & Streichquintett D956

Franz Schubert
Sonate für Arpeggione und Klavier D821 - Streichquintett D956

Nicolas Deletaille - Paul Badura-Skoda - Quatuor Rosamonde

“

In this record, Nicolas Deletaille, a young graduate of the Queen Elisabeth Musical Chapel and of the Juilliard School of New York, brings together exceptional partners for a special “Schubertiade”. First, the « Arpeggione » sonata, performed on a superb Arpeggione, specially built by the instrument maker Benjamin Labrique. Our young virtuoso is accompanied by none other than the great Paul Badura-Skoda, who was absolutely fascinated by the re-discovery of the short-lived instrument. Then we come to the quest for the Graal: the posthumous Quintet, where the cello succeeds this curious “guitar with a bow” and melts harmoniously in the refined sounds of the Rosamonde Quartet. An exceptionally interesting chamber music record that allows a dynamic and original young musician to produce himself in very elegant company indeed !
