COMPOSERS: Schubert
LABELS: Teldec Digital Experience
WORKS: Octet
PERFORMER: Berliner Solisten
CATALOGUE NO: 4509- 91448-2 DDD
If you like this music symphonically scaled, urgent in climax and big in gesture, the Berlin Soloists won’t disappoint. If, however, you prefer it chamber-like in dimension, understated, and more intimate, then they fall short. Impressive on occasion; impersonal and uninvolved otherwise. All repeats observed. Ates Orga
