Tetzlaff, more than any other violinist around today, is utterly attuned to Schumann's idiom in these later works: the mercurial changes of mood are conveyed as if they're the most natural thing in the world (...). This, quite simply, wipes the floor with the competition. If you have the slightest interest in Schumann's chamber music, add it to your shelves.
Harriet Smith, Gramophone January 2014, Recording of the Month
There's no doubting the rewarding partnership of Christian Tetzlaff and Lars Vogt in this admirable account. Their partnership is equal throughout (...). Piercing intelligence and verve illuminate each movement; and Tetzlaff is never afraid to take his tone right down to a whisper, enhancing the works' everpresent shadows. There is exemplary tenderness, tempered at all times by good sense.
