Description
Although it is known that Schubert did not often dance, he willingly played the piano for dances and parties, being only too keen to provide examples that fuelled the Viennese Waltz craze of the time. These light dances - including Waltzes and Landler - are the focus of this album which features his masterful small-scaled Valses sentimentales. Including some earlier versions of the same works, this selection of 99 tracks contains many rare Schubert gems. All the waltzes here are beautifully balanced, attentive to key changes, and technically accessible to pianists. Also included is the Kupelwieser-Walzer transcribed in 1943 by Richard Strauss.
