This is the second release featuring the Copenhagen Piano Duo, the two female pianists Tonya Lemoh and Cathrine Penderup, in exiting music for four hands. Their first release on Danacord featured music by Satie, Brahms, Granados and Barber and was very well received all over the world. Here they turn to the so- called Golden Age with music from the early romantics. At the centre is the Danish composer Niels W. Gade who assisted Mendelssohn in Leipzig and here his complete music for four hands is recorded for the first time. Also recorded is the rare Schumann Bilder as Osten (Pictures from the East which is receiving a ravishing interpretations. Tonya Lemoh and Cathrine Penderup have each recorded solo albums for Danacord to critical acclaim.
