One of the most exciting cellists of the younger generation and the "Piano Discovery of the Year" team up for this GENUIN release: Benedict Kloeckner and Danae Dörken perform works by Robert Schumann, Dmitri Shostakovich, and Bohuslav Martinů. They have named their CD Nostalgia and Revolution, a title that applies to all three composers who, in a twofold manner, both mirrored and shaped their times. Splendid duo playing with long and sweeping lines together with a fair share of hooks and barbs – a fascinating chamber music production that gives us hope that we’ll be hearing more from this duo in the future!
