Schubert / Arcadi Volodos- Piano Sonata D 959 (CD)
The master pianist returns to Schubert 17 years after his first Schubert recording of piano Sonatas 1 & 18, which was hailed by Gramophone magazine as a "triumphant recording." The only chance to hear his interpretation of Schubert's mighty piano sonata No. 20 D 959, as he has now retired this work forever from his live programme. To complete the album Volodos lends his unique and spellbinding artistry to 3 short Minuets - that are seldom recorded or performed. D 600 in particular is given an amazing and very individual treatment by Volodos and should work well in our playlists.
