Performance *** Recording ***

“… Carcano offers a strong vision of a thoughtful, deliberate Schumann: his rendition of the opening Humoreske is multi-layered, weighty; it’s perhaps not quite as eccentric as one might hope because of Carcano’s tendency to favour the sustaining pedal…Carcano’s performance left me deeply interested, if not wholly convinced.”

Natasha Loges – BBC Music magazine – January 2019

“König and his Solistes Européens bring the Méhul persuasively to life. A similar approach – raw but with just enough subtlety – infuses their performance of the Eroica, which has a winning energy and the odd rough edges.”

Erica Jeal – BBC Music magazine – May 2018

“Beethoven would have been surprised by the eclipse of Méhul’s music...Yet Méhul’s First Symphony (1808) wilts beside the Eroica and its irresistible sense of direction, especially in a performance as powerful and rich in detail as this.”
