Here, finally, is a chamber "classical music" album, original and lively, that offers a narrative thread. A narrative with words, thanks to the renowned Melologhi, in their first absolute recording with Italian text, in which the extraordinary actress Milena Vukotic offers a brilliant example of the potential guaranteed by a great reciting voice in synergy with the rich, profound, and mysterious piano of Filippo Faes. It continues with musical narratives, offered by Anna Serova's splendid viola in the equally famous Märchenbilder: and then again the Märchenerzählungen, where Marco Thomas's clarinet joins the viola. How could it not conclude with one of the most famous pages of literature of all time, namely the Quintet Op. 44? In this long overview of Robert Schumann's romantic world, the Ensemble Punto It, led by the multifaceted pianist and man of letters Filippo Faes, offers an interpretation that is always vibrant, modern, technically impeccable despite being a strongly romantic reading. The CD was recorded within the walls of the great Magister Studio with high-resolution digital technology.
