About

The Hamburg-born Ferdinand Thieriot (1838–1919) not only shared a teacher – Eduard Marxsen – with Brahms; both composers use a very similar musical language, one which is richly melodic and effortlessly contrapuntal. The musicologist Wilhelm Altmann wrote that “Thieriot's chamber music is without exception noble and pure. He writes with perfect command of form and expression” – as the works on this third Toccata Classics volume prove, in their exquisite balance of depth and beauty.

“Where have these works been all your life? […] The performances have a golden age security and glow.” – Rob Barnett, MusicWeb International (Vol.1: TOCC0080)

“The most prevalent influence in the quintet seems to be Schumann, but Schumann could not have crafted a work of such expansiveness, such outpouring of nonstop melody, and such sustained generosity of emotional expression. Hearing this work, it’s hard not to shout, ‘MASTERPIECE!’ […] My mouth is watering for the next installment” – Jerry Dubins, Fanfare Magazine, July/August 2013 (Vol.1: TOCC0080)
