A major new series of recordings dedicated to Robert Schumann, a composer that Levy seems to identify with especial conviction.
Daniel Levy’s interpretations emerge with strength and Romanticism, fulfilling the emotional, intellectual and spiritual challenges of Schumann’s music.
Julian Haylock reviewed Levy’s interpretation of Schumann’s celebrated Piano Concerto in BBC Music Magazine as:
“An all-time great recording…lovingly phrased and exultantly voiced”.
