Audiences have noted the great chemistry between Lavazza and pianist Leonardo Ciampa, particularly in the music of Johannes Brahms. Ciampa is especially eager to perform the C minor quartet once again with Lavazza. "The Andante in E major is easily one of the most beautiful movements Brahms ever composed. It oozes with his love for Clara Schumann. I don't think he ever wrote anything else that was so openly Romantic. And I personally have never worked with a cellist who plays the famous solo as beautifully as Jan Pfeiffer.
