Schumann - Complete Works for Piano Vol. 1

Young Irish pianist Finghin Collins, still only 29, has been building quite a career for himself since winning the prestigious Clara Haskil International Piano Competition in 1999. CLAVES released his first CD the following year (50-9910), and this new release sees the start of an exciting project to record all Schumann’s piano music. The epitome of romanticism, these lovely works are presented with power and tenderness – and not a little Irish charm!
