Quartet with viola
Schumann and the Rhine : Intertwined Destinies
With Violaine Despeyroux, viola
"The river stretched out before me, calm, silent, serene, and proud like an ancient god... I squeezed my eyes shut so I could savor with all my soul, with reverence, the first apparition of the old, majestic Father Rhine. When I opened them again, he was there, calm, peaceful, grave, and proud like an old Germanic god, and with him the whole marvelous land of the flowering Rhine, its mountains, its valleys, and its surrounding paradises." (Schumann, 1829-30)
