Details: Amazon.ca It's good to have this collection of Fauré chamber music, played by French performers, still available in the catalog. Fauré's music doesn't appeal to everyone, despite its late-Romantic idiom; most of it is very subtle, almost withdrawn, and to get the most out of it takes a lot of listening. That listening is eventually rewarded by a rich experience. Fauré's most overtly romantic and exciting chamber piece, the Piano Quartet No. 1, is included in this set, and should appeal to most listeners. If you can spring for it, though, Erato 96953-2 has all of Fauré's chamber music, with a better string quartet than the ensemble heard here. --Leslie Gerber
