About

Throughout his life, Philipp Scharwenka (1847-1917) was eclipsed by his younger brother, Franz Xaver Scharwenka (1850-1924), who made a world-renowned career as a piano virtuoso. It is only from the historical perspective that it becomes clear that Philipp was superior to his brother as a composer. This is demonstrated by this album, supplementing Philipp Scharwenka’s meager discography with his works for violin, viola and piano. Violinist Laurent Albrecht Breuninger heads up this project, joined by violist Lise Berthaud and pianist Oliver Triendl.

Reviews

“Rewarding highly romantic works in persuasive performances.”

Rob Challinor – MusicWeb-International.com – 10 July 2020

Pizzicato Supersonic

“… four wonderfully imaginative works. Beyond their constructive quality, they have concertante, expressive and melodic-thematic qualities which, thanks to their magnificent interpretations, immediately appeal to the listener.”

Remy Franck – Pizzicato.lu – 1 May 2020

"... Beautifully played, very nicely recorded and with no other accounts of these works currently available, this issue is self-recommending."

Guy Rickards – Gramophone magazine – July 2020
