About

The music of Dohnányi (admired by figures as disparate as Brahms and Bartók) embodies virtues of taste, humour, impeccable control of form and beauty of style; all qualities relished by The Nash Ensemble in wonderful new recordings which can only assist with this composer’s continuing rehabilitation.

Reviews

The Nash Ensemble dig into Dohnányi’s Serenade (1902) with gusto, relishing the music’s myriad felicities. ... The Nash’s performance of the Third String Quartet (1926) is more impressive still. Right from the first surging phrase – which froths and spits like a crashing wave – they grasp the emotional meaning of the composer’s agitato e appassionato directive. ... It’s a gloriously overripe, at times rapturous interpretation [of the Sextet], and I’m smitten by it. If you’ve never taken to Dohnányi’s music before, these performances should win you over. If you’re already a convert, you’ll want this.  Andrew Farach-Colton
