SCHUMANN / PENNARIO: Quartet for Piano and Strings / Part 3/4

Part-3 andante cantabile

Leonard Pennario (piano)
Eudice Shapiro (violin)
Sanford Schonbach (viola)
Victor Gottlieb (cello)

Harris Goldsmith wrote in 'High Fidelity':

"Pennario's infallible sense of give-and-take prevents him from overpowering the more delicate string sonorities. The ardent impetuosity of the other players complements his approach, and he seems to be relishing the collaboration from beginning to end. The Schumann performance is a complete triumph, and it very nearly eclipses the somewhat overripe Festival Quartet edition for RCA Victor and the wiry, brusque Demus-Barylli for Westminster."
