Ornstein - Piano Quintet, Op. 92 (Weber) [750 subscribers special]

Thank you all for the 750 subscribers! For the occasion, here is one of the best Quintet ever, often claimed as being the masterpiece of Leo Ornstein. Barbaric, furious, tempetuous, terrific, yet magical, sublime, mysterious and absolutely beautiful. It is also an immense work (260 pages!) but of constant quality. Though, it is a severly underrated work, like all Leo Ornstein’s pieces. I. Allegro barbaro - 00:00 II. Andante lamentoso - 13:48 III. Allegro agitato - 24:14 Performance by Janice Weber and the Lydian String quartet : Janice Weber, piano Andrea Segar and Judith Eissenberg, violins Mark Berger, viola Joshua Gordon, cello
