SOMM Recordings is delighted to announce the eagerly-awaited second volume of the Tessa Uys and Ben Schoeman Piano Duo's ground-breaking series exploring Franz Xaver Scharwenka's transcriptions of Beethoven Symphonies. A composer of no mean stature in his own right, Scharwenka's transcriptions were once widely admired, his treatments of Beethoven's symphonies a high-watermark of the genre. Volume 1 (SOMMCD 0637) met with universal acclaim; Gramophone praising the "mastery" of the performances, BBC Music finding it "utterly beguiling" and MusicWeb International declaring "I was blown away by this magnificent recording". Volume 2 features the first recording of Scharwenka's transcription of Beethoven's iconic Fifth Symphony for piano duet. Claiming a direct connection to Beethoven via his teacher Franz Kullak, who had studied with Beethoven's pupil Carl Czerny, Scharwenka provides a virtuosic re-imagining of the Fifth's tremendous scale, organic growth and seething energy. The Variations on a Theme of Beethoven by Saint-Saëns show him, Robert Matthew-Walker says in his informative booklet notes, "at his most brilliant and searching... beautiful, imposing and elegant, as well as humorous". Robert Schumann's Andante and Variations in B-flat reveal Romanticism's quintessential musical poet at his most emotionally acute: "overhung with a pervading sense of intimacy, the music unfolds as a series of reflections upon the Andante theme, refracted in genuine variation styles of tempo, rhythm, tonalities (beautifully implied) and character"., Runningtime: 00:00:00, Artwork [Cover]: August von Kloeber, Booklet Editor: Michael Quinn (8), Design: Andrew Giles (3), Engineer [Recording]: Ben Connellan, Engineer [Recording]: Paul Arden-Taylor, Liner Notes: Robert Matthew-Walker, Piano: Ben Schoeman, Piano: Tessa Uys, Producer [Recording]: Siva Oke, Arranged By: Xaver Scharwenka, Composed By: Ludwig van Beethoven, Piano [Primo]: Tessa Uys, Piano [Secondo]: Ben Schoeman, Composed By: Robert Schumann, Piano [II]: Ben Schoeman, Piano [I]: Tessa Uys, Composed By: Camille Saint-Saëns, Piano [II]: Tessa Uys, Piano [I]: Ben Schoeman, Labelcode SOMM650.2 (SOMMCD 0650), Phonographic Copyright (p) Somm Recordings, Copyright (c) Somm Recordings, Recorded At The Menuhin Hall
