Märchenbilder
Stücke im Volkston
Piano Quintet in E-Flat Major, Op. 44

The Benvenue Fortepiano Trio’s acclaimed accounts of Schumann’s Piano Trios opened the ears of chamber music devotees with the crystalline textures of its period instruments and the drawing-room intimacy of its interpretations. Anchored by Grammy®-nominated violinist Monica Huggett, the members of the Trio continue exploring Schumann’s chamber music with cellist Tanya Tomkins and fortepianist Eric Zivian performing Fünf Stücke im Volkston, guest violist Jodi Levitz and Zivian in Märchenbilder, and the forces coming together for the capstone of the composer’s chamber output, his Piano Quintet.
