Performers:
Nikolai Demidenko – piano
As most of the books say the early piano pieces of Schumann are considered to be the best part of his entire output.
This CD presents the two less known cycles of miniatures written in 1838 (Novelletten) and 1839 (Humoresque). Novelletten were written almost at the same time with Kreisleriana and their character has a lot in common with that genious cycle. Humoresque is one more wonderful example of Florestan and Eusebius symbiosis. Both of the pieces are extremely emotional and bear a great deal of beautiful and heartfelt musical thoughts.
The interpretation by Nikolai Demidenko is flawless and brilliant, one of the best I've heard.
For those who loved this CD I highly recommend Hyperion recording of Schumann Sonatas 1,3 also by Demidenko. Both CD-s are an excellent examples of Shumann small and large-scale forms in piano music performed by a high-class master.
