About
Reviews
In some sense, the dumka is at the heart of nearly all of Dvořák’s music. That poetic opposition between melancholy lyricism and rhythmic exuberance is certainly what fuels his Op 81 Piano Quintet – and Marc-André Hamelin and the Takács Quartet make the most of it. ... The Dumka movement itself is exquisite, the slow sections played with refinement and delicacy, highlighting the inventiveness of Dvořák’s textures, while the Un pochettino piů mosso sections tremble like a heart a-flutter, and the Vivace’s rhythmic vitality is positively buoyant. ... Florence Price’s A minor Piano Quintet (composed in the mid-1930s) makes an unusual yet delightful disc-mate. ... this new Hyperion release is pure pleasure in every respect. Andrew Farach-Colton
