) | Label: Catalog: ABCD 418 Format: SACD Stenhammar Quartet; Gislinge, KatrineWhat happens when the best Danish pianist and the best string quartet in Sweden are combined on the same recording to play the world's most beautiful music? Well, it becomes an amazing album. This release presents three of Mozart´s piano concertos in his own version for piano and string quartet. Cadenzas written by Danish contemporary composer Bent Sørensen breathe a breath of fresh air into the album. During the past two decades, pianist Katrine Gislinge has become one of the most important pianists in the Nordic countries, playing both classic and contemporary music as a soloist and chamber musician throughout Europe. The Stenhammar Quartet, founded in 2002, has established itself as one of the Nordic string quartets. Wilhelm Stenhammar's works are, of course, at the heart of the band's work, but its repertoire extends from baroque to contemporary music.  Price: $27.98 |
