Product Description
In his last Virgin Classics recital, a varied live programme from New York's Carnegie Hall, Piotr Anderszewski included Faschingsschwank aus Wien by Schumann. On this new release, he focuses entirely on that quintessential German Romantic, whose 200th anniversary is celebrated in 2010.
"For me, Schumann is the great humanist," says Piotr Anderszewski. "His purity and honesty touch me profoundly." This new recital brings together three of the composer's more rarely performed keyboard works, including the last piano music he completed.
"I fell back in love with Schumann a couple of years ago when I played the Humoreske," explains Piotr Anderszewski. "For me, Schumann is the great humanist: there is more to his work and his life than music, and his purity and honesty touch me profoundly ... There is even greatness in the failures he experienced as a composer
