Description:

Born in Copenhagen to a family of instrument makers, Göse was a composer recognized by Mendelssohn, Schumann, and others. He also succeeded Mendelssohn as principal conductor of the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra upon Mendelssohn's death, and in his later years he was active as a pedagogue, influencing Grieg, Nielsen, and others and becoming one of the central figures in Scandinavian music. This album is composed in such a way that it is possible to trace the transition of Göse's compositions by including his early, middle, and late works. The musicians are Lott, a German violinist born in 1987, and Speidel, a German pianist born in 1944, who have performed together on several recordings. They are again showing their breathtaking chemistry. Tokyo M-Plus
