Schubert: Moments musicaux D780, Op94; Piano Sonata in Bf No21, D960

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Despite his renown for Beethoven, Schnabel was arguably more innovative as a Schubert player. He probed past the music's drawing-room reputation by exploring the composer's tragic underside and illuminating the music's elusive form. At the same time, Schubert's melodies sang out with uncluttered simplicity and nuance under Schnabel's fingers. Yes, he fusses a bit in the hackneyed F Minor Moment Musical, and he really should have practiced those dotted chords in the B Flat Op. Posthumous Sonata's finale. So what? EMI's transfers do these performances justice. --Jed Distler

    5 out of 5 stars Zeus+Apollo = Schnabel's Schubert!.......2005-03-02

    This EMI Rerferences set is amazing! The sound quality is excellent for the late 1930's, loud and clear!

    It is the best Schubert I've ever heard! And one could easily think that Schnabel is playing late Beethoven!
