Thank you 🐤

[@ebhebeda]

a milestone in chambermusic and
a new reference interpretation for Schumann' s 3rd sonata. Absolutly stunning! The highest level of mastership is, when the composer is the topstar. This is here the case.

[@marcvilleneuve1889]

The greatest violinist of our era and formidable pianist, together, making an Everest interpretation...this is monumental and will make history.

Listening to Märchenbilder (which I had never heard of before) in the hall was unforgettable, thank you James!

I'm so happy to see this is reuploaded on RUclips!! I watched this live, then again on RUclips (uploaded by Wigmore Hall), but then Wigmore took it down... and I was so upset I'd never have the chance to listen to it again. But here we are, and again I can listen to the brightness of James Ehnes' playing! Pure joy :D

Superb musicianship from both artists.

Missed when it was premiering (too early here). Just finished streaming on tv. Time passed in a blur.
Gorgeous! Thank you for the introduction to works that added sparks, wit and joy. Thank you both and Wigmore Hall in the first place for the program.
