Description:

Brian Thornton, cellist of the Cleveland Orchestra, and Spencer Mayer, cellist of the Cleveland Orchestra for 25 years, have released two Schumann albums on the STEINWAY label. They have already released two albums on the STEINWAY label: a collection of Brahms' cello sonatas (STNS30081) and an album of Brahms' trios with Yussuf on clarinet (STNS30109), both of which received high acclaim. This time, Thornton has collected works by Schumann, who was a close friend of Brahms, and the audience can enjoy the depth of expression that only Thornton, who has a wide repertoire, can provide.
