Schubert: Piano Sonatas Nos.13 & 21, Impromptu D89
Label: Praga Catalog: PRD 350063 Format: SACD / CD Hybrid Composed by: SCHUBERT, F.,Sviatoslav Richter (piano) Richter conquered Paris with this kind of Schubert scores. The last and immense Piano Sonata No.21 in B flat major, D 960 (1828) stayed a long time in his repertoire chasing the 'small', once faciend sonatas. He captures the brillant ambiguity of these serie of exclamations, more a cycle of impromptus than a real sonata dixit Beethoven, its strict architecture opposing its instinctive imaginativeness. Richter exudes overwhelming charm of an isolated Impomptu before respecting the post mozartian baroau approach in the 1819 small A major Sonata D 664. Price: $26.98 |
