About
His greatest admirer, Hans von Bülow, summarised Volkmann's works: “Volkmann is a poet in creation and a philosopher in the performance and preparation of creations. As a result we find in his compositions alongside the depth and intimacy of the ideas that unity and purity of form which lends these ideas their fitting expression.” Volkmann’s work is mainly focused on songs and chamber music, making these two genres fill the CD from the Jubilee Edition of the Querstand label and giving testimony to the abilities of the composer. The opener of the CD is the Piano Trio which saved Volkmann his place in the world of composers. Numerous works see their world premiere recording on this CD.
