Arte Nova has released a delightful disc of two Conradin Kreutzer chamber
works. One is a septet for wind, brass, and string instruments; the other
is one of Kreutzer's piano trios. These two works do not attempt to plumb
any depths. They simply provide extremely pleasant listening.
I found the septet particularly rewarding; the recorded sound is very rich
and deep. It suited the work to a tee. At the Arte Nova price, this is a
disc that is irresistable.
