Synopsis

Amazon.com
These two major late works of Schubert make for a wonderful program. The Sonata puts the listener through such an emotional journey that even the moving set of Impromptus comes as something of a relief. Carol Rosenberger's performances have a kind of warmhearted openness that suits the music very well. She doesn't play with the incredible subtlety of Artur Schnabel, whose playing of the Sonata (in EMI 65259-2) remains incomparable. But Rosenberger's approach to Schubert is also very valid, and her excellent contemporary recording quality is far better than Schnabel's well-transferred 78s. Rosenberger's program notes offer further insight into Schubert's music. --Leslie Gerber
