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 second Toccata Classics volume prove, in their exquisite balance of depth and beauty.

“Thieriot distinguished himself mainly in the field of chamber music… His Piano Quintet on the Toccata CD can easily stand with the more famous piano quintets of Schumann, Dvořák, and Brahms.” – Jerry Dubins, Fanfare Magazine (Vol.1, TOCC0080)
