I received this SACD a few days ago and having listened to it a few times
I can clearly say that it is a stunning disc. The music remind me of some of Brahms chamber music, thus very accessible, it is inventive, quite complex but a real joy to listen to.
The cherry on the cake is the audio quality, it is one of the best recording I have heard full stop. The tonal quality of the instruments
is so perfect, the acoustic of the recording venue is also present but\not overdone. Now how can a composer like Raff be so neglected?? I see that their is a RBCD of his piano quintets also available from the same label
(Divox) and I have placed my order, pity it is not on SACD but I am sure it will be good.

More expensive doesn't necessarily mean better.
As your link shows, I reviewed this SACD last October. It was my SACD of the year - simply terrific music in a great performance supported by sterling sound. I'm delighted you like it too. It seems that most folks who hang around the SACD.net site are orchestral people so chamber releases don't get nearly as much hype as the big symphonic spectaculars. It's good to see this release getting more pub.EDIT: I also have the RBCD with Raff/Goetz piano quartets.This is a good release too but the music is just a tad less interesting compared to the quintets and the sound is good RBCD (not SACD).
