About
'This project is that of the discovery of the intimate bond which united Johannes Brahms to Clara Schumann even in their sentimental universe. As for Joseph Joachim, famous as a violinist, but also as a violist, he composed magnificent pieces for this latter instrument, such as the Hebrew Melodies. He also played a magnificent viola by Gasparo da Salo, Brescia from 1609. It is therefore quite natural that the idea of bringing together the two instruments, the violin and the viola, came to me in the same recording. Etsuko and I have endeavoured to find the richest and most expressive sound palette possible. One can feel in this music a humanity, an exceptional intelligence coupled with an overwhelming sensitivity. Basically, the vision of Johannes Brahms, Clara Schumann and Joseph Joachim, favours singing, not just the instrument, which they seem to have completely surpassed. This music and our project therefore take on their full meaning.'
