Scholars and performers in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries commenting on Schubert's oeuvre long struggled to define his style, seeking to assign him either to Viennese classicism or to romanticism. In reality, however, as we see with the hindsight of two hundred years, Schubert drew freely on the traditions of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven while at the same time developing his own ideas, extending from a light, popular idiom to the truly avant-garde works of the last years of his life. Schubert's influence on later nineteenth-century composers is inestimable - and in virtually every genre, except for opera. Chamber music without his contribution - take Brahms, for instance! - is essentially inconceivable. A brilliant melodist and Viennese songwriter, but also a marvellous discoverer of unusual harmonies and architect of musical forms, Schubert remains a constant challenge, presenting us with the task of forever discovering him anew.
This recording is released as part of the Fryderyk Chopin Institute's Resonance series (Rezonans).
