Description:

Brahms: The Magic of Brahms by a Mature HeidtschekHeidtschek made this recording in Paris in April 2008. He has been showing an increasing affinity for Brahms in recent years, and here again he delivers his confident works with a mastery no one else can imitate. The skillful narration of the "Six Pieces" from Brahms' last days, filled with a sense of desolation, is truly divine, and the high voltage from the murmuring pianissimo to the exploding energy is unique to Haydushek. The "Variations on a Theme Originally Composed," which is not often played, is also very moving. What a good piece of music! The "Variations on a Theme by Schumann" played jointly with Mrs. Tanya is also worth listening to. The variations on a theme written by Schumann in a mental hospital tell a profound story. ［Comments courtesy of King International.]
