Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Instrumental and vocal music are normally kept tightly in their pigeon holes but with Schubert it makes abundant sense to mix the two, as there are such close links between them. The idea here came from performances at Leif Ove Andsnes’ chamber music festival in Risor, Norway, though the disc itself is a studio recording. The result is like a flower unfolding: the sonata leading to four songs, the third of which ("Auf dem Strom") has the added tonal element of a horn part (beautifully played by Timothy Brown). The D959 sonata is one of Schubert’s most dramatic, with some wild and unexpected passages. Andsnes does not hold back here, yet it is the intimacy of his reading which really makes you sit up and listen. There is a sense of scale which is truly Schubertian--we are not in a large concert hall but sitting with the composer and a few friends. The same intimacy is followed through in the choice and performance of the songs, Ian Bostridge in fine voice and accompanied with such sensitivity by Andsnes. The pianist says it is the first part of a longer project. With performances like this, the more the merrier.--Keith Clarke
