MARBECKS COLLECTABLE: Schubert: Works for Piano (4 Hands)

"One might expect this combination of artists playing Schubert to produce winning results, and so it does. Rarely will you hear duet playing of such refined elegance and multicoloured animation… The Variations in A flat are beautifully played… the most subtle and discerning pianism, skilfully integrated with perfect balance and articulation… The fine detail of Barenboim's and Lupu's account, their diversity of colour and attack and their voicing of melodic and inner lines, suggests an image of suitably orchestral depth and variety. Furthermore, the surface gloss of these performances is underpinned by the most crystalline lucidity and poetry. Excellently recorded, this disc can be warmly recommended." Gramophone
