"Editor's choice - November 2022: Schwabe's big, brawny tone and evident rapport with Pöntinen certainly pack a punch in the opening movements of the Prokofiev and Shostakovich sonatas in particular, but he's just as compelling when thinning his tone down to the merest thread of sound or stepping into the role of accompanist; Kissin's brooding one-movement Cello Sonata from 2016 showcases his ringing upper register, whilst both artists generate an edge-of-the-seat frisson in the hectic passage-work of Prokofiev's early (and under-recorded) Ballade from 1912".
