Krystian Zimermans passion for chamber music goes back to his childhood and has accompanied him ever since. He states, every great composer wrote some kind of quartet with piano. Its a fantastic richness of music history that is often underestimated. Although Johannes Brahms No. 1 in G minor is the best known of his three piano quartets, Zimerman instead focuses on the sometimes-overlooked Piano Quartets No. 2 and No. 3 in order to give them the attention they deserve. He adds, I particularly love the Third Quartet. Its crazy. Its so powerful. It has unbelievable drive.For this recordingKrystianZimermanteamed up with cellistYuya Okamoto, violinistMaria Nowakand violistKatarzyna Budnik.
