73:32 | The Nash Ensemble | Hyperion | 2001

This is my favourite disc of RVW's chamber music, not least for its programming. It has become typical to pair the two numbered quartets with the phantasy quintet, but this is not ideal because it gives the listener two early works coupled with a jarringly different late one. The first good choice in the programming on this Nash Ensemble disc is to replace the first quartet with the late violin sonata, an under-performed masterpiece. The second is to add as a "bonus" two more pieces to increase the richness and diversity of the set. The Lake in the Mountains is a beautiful impressionistic piano piece, but at the same time fully recognisable as having RVW's tonal fingerprints on it. The English folk song studies are minor works, but in the context of this programme they absolutely shine.

'An intriguing treasure trove' (The Strad)

'Superb performances' (Classic FM Magazine)

'Pliant and sympathetic performances of deeply rewarding repertoire. This disc will surely give much pleasure' (Gramophone)

'First-rate, insufficiently appreciated music in excellent renderings, and good sound. Well worth your attention' (Fanfare, USA)

'Hyperion's engineering is excellent throughout, and the Nash Ensemble, who play with great sensitivity and exhibit a meticulous concern for focus, draw each distinct element into the most entertaining of music, and delightfully project an illustrious style in composition that you will want to hear time and time again' (HiFi+)
