"The Abegg Trio, hitherto distinguished for recordings of Beethoven and Brahms Trios, returns - as far as the name is concerned - "to itself" with this recording; this judgment is not just a play on words. Far more, it refers to the recording itself: whereas the Beethoven and Brahms recordings were highly remarkable in themselves, the Schumann interpretation by the three musicians is utterly charming: With it's natural flow, musical elan where Schumann intended it, and analytically delicate detail work where the structure requires it. And whereas there is other high-standard competition to the D Minor Trio to which the Abegg Trio is supremely equal, the atmospherically dense and 'characteristic' recording of the Fantasy Pieces is unrivalled. The recording is beautifully transparent and faithful to the score. A thoroughly worthwhile recording." (stereoplay)
