Consone Quartet plays Schumann's Piano Quintet with Paolo Zanzu
Period ensemble the Consone Quartet, Radio 3 New Generation Artists, perform Schumann's Piano Quintet with Paolo Zanzu, who plays an 1839 Johann Streicher instrument.
Another chance to hear a series of concerts curated by the Consone Quartet, recent members of Radio 3's New Generation Artists Scheme. Recorded during 2020 and 2021 at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, in Cardiff, the group, who specialise in playing romantic and classical works on period instruments, take part in a series of collaborations. In their first concert, which was recorded in October 2020, the Consone are joined by keyboard specialist, Paolo Zanzu on an 1839 Johann Streicher fortepiano, for a performance of Schumann's powerful and contrasting Piano Quintet Before that Paolo plays Schumann's Kinderszenen, a series of touching evocations of a child's world.
