Schubert Live Vol 1
Composed by Franz Schubert
Avie/AV2157
Recorded April 2009 at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, London
‘Over the years, Imogen Cooper has shown herself to be one of the interpretative élite and on this new issue she reinforces her standing as one of the finest Schubertians in the world. The fanciful Écossaises are shaped with the utmost artistry and the Drei Klavierstücke are given with an almost Chopinesque sense of individual oneness. This is superb pianism by a very fine artist…her profound understanding of the nature of Schubert¹s solo piano music is wonderfully conveyed to us here in performances of the highest order.'
