Lachner, Jensen, Glinka

Released in 2012 under the Phil. harmonie label, this recording brings together a selection of works by Franz Lachner, Adolf Jensen, and Mikhail Glinka. The album features performances by Rüdiger Liebermann, Walter Küssner, and Sugiyama, who were all members of the Berlin Philharmonic at the time of the recording. This project serves as a showcase for their chamber music expertise, reflecting the ensemble's tradition of exploring repertoire that bridges the gap between the Romantic era's technical demands and the intimacy of chamber performance.

The recording is part of a series produced by members of the Berlin Philharmonic, intended to document their collaborative work outside the standard orchestral setting. The design is straightforward and utility-focused, prioritizing the clarity of the musical program over elaborate presentation. It was received as a professional contribution to the chamber music discography, recognized primarily for the high level of technical precision and tonal refinement expected from instrumentalists of the Berlin Philharmonic.
