Notes & Reviews:

"...This is an admirable sampler of Schumann's choral writing. Thus, we have music for mixed voices, with and without soloists, with and without piano accompaniment; we also have two works with orchestra...The fly in the ointment - and a sticky one at that! - is the total absence of texts or translations...That very serious shortcoming aside, this release can be recommended to all choral collectors, and especially to those who think they know all about Robert Schumann." -Barker, ARG
