Gerardo Teissonnière - Schubert: The Complete Impromptus (2023) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

Pianist Gerardo Teissonnière follows up his highly acclaimed Steinway & Sons debut recording with an album of Franz Schubert's complete Impromptus, an important cornerstone of the entire piano literature.

“Franz Schubert has occupied a very special place in my heart since I first became acquainted with his chamber music and piano works. He has been my great friend ever since, and my love for his music only grew in scope after my studies with two disciples of the Austrian composer’s great champion and interpreter, Artur Schnabel. The Impromptus are an exemplary and important cornerstone of the entire piano literature, and a natural choice after my album of the last Beethoven sonatas.”

“An impressive Schubert interpreter, Teissonnière approaches the literature with confidence, understanding and skill. These Schubert scores are masterful explorations in complexity of rhythm and mood and contrast in light and dark. Teissonnière met the challenges.”
