Lights off – CD player on: set off upon the phosphoresced traces that snails leave in the night. Razor-sharp string chords, oscillating sound images and groovy piano rhythms. This is how the Flex Ensemble begins its first GENUIN CD and Stephen Hartke's magnificent piano quartet – what a debut! Embark on a journey with the four exceptional musicians, through the darkness: virtuoso, strongly expressive, undaunted. Hartke, Piazzolla, Brahms – it is worth it to be curious about each and every piece!

This CD is the prize of the Schumann Chamber Music Competition in 2013, which is sponsored by the Commerzbank Foundation and the Schumann Society.
