"Karol Stryja succeeds in getting plenty of atmosphere into No. 3 ... this is the best stereo Symphonie Concertante"
- Penguin Guide to Compact Discs
Unless you lived in a major city during the lifetime of Brahms, you would never have heard his major symphonic works. Publishers were quick to see the opportunity of a new market, and commissioned arrangers - sometimes the composer - to make piano versions, often for four hands at one piano. To recreate the soloists, chorus and orchestra in the most famous choral work of Brahms, Ein deutsches Requiem (German Requiem), demands a piano duo of brilliant technical virtuosity.
