Description:

Excelsio and Yoshihiro Kondo deliver dramatic interpretations of two piano quintets that epitomize the German Romantic era. Their musical sensibilities appear to be quite similar, resulting in a performance marked by a strong sense of unity. While they intensely convey the passion swirling within the works, meticulous attention is evident in their handling of changes in tempo and tone color. It is a passionate performance that exudes a sense of maturity. (Nao) (From the CD Journal Database)
