How refreshing it is to hear musicians play music with feeling and soul! The passion is not forced onto the music but a part of the performers and infused into their music making.

Simply beautiful. Occasionally, the piano was over-bearing, but that was probably due to mic placement. Obviously, this group understands the soul and heart of this gorgeous music.
The players look young but I expect we'll hear a lot of great things from them.
Fabulous performance.

1:54 - Oh! Very bad! This is meant to be the most beautiful part of the piece. It shoudl have much more emotion and contrast - it shouldn't be very wild and such.

The violinist was formerly the concertmaster of the world youth orchestra. I'll be playing the Mendelssohn violin concerto with her this year. Should be fun.

I like it! This piece is beautiful. But I think the piano is to much for the strings. Sometimes I can't hear the violin cause of the piano... It may happened because the recording... :)

What a wonderful piece and perfectly contemporary from the Romantic Era.

Don't forget that every thing has a season...a time to be. This was the time for Robert and Clara. The genious of their souls can be analyzed and dissected but remember not to miss the more important thing that their music was simply a gift to all of us from God that was meant to simply be enjoyed for what it is... without the need for intense analysis. Pure flowing art that keeps us all from reverting to savagery and cannabalism..
