The cello is said to be the instrument that most closely resembles the human voice. And when we hear Mark Schumann’s GENUIN debut release, we can’t help but agree: Short Stories is the title of his album, on which he has brought together miniature gems ranging from Haydn to Schumann and Davidoff to Kreisler. Each is more beautiful than the next, and all thrillingly performed! The winner of several international competitions, he perfected the art of chamber music with his siblings as part of the Schumann Quartet, and is capable of bringing out the most subtle nuances: from the elegiac Chopin Nocturne to the fast and furious Zapateado. Elegant virtuosity!

MusicWeb International
"Short Stories is an accomplished, mature recording from two young, enthusiastic performers that should be making headlines in the not too distant future. I enjoyed it immensely and would recommend it to anyone who loves the sound of the cello or to someone who would like a gentle, elegant introduction to classical music."
