舒伯特: 鋼琴獨奏作品第五集 貝瑞．道格拉斯 鋼琴 Barry Douglas / Schubert: Works For Piano Vol. 5

舒伯特: 鋼琴獨奏作品第五集 (2首鋼琴奏鳴曲/2首天鵝之歌鋼琴改編曲)
貝瑞．道格拉斯 鋼琴

For his fifth volume of Schubert's piano works, Barry Douglas turns to a contrasting pair of sonatas composed in the 1820s. The A minor, from 1823, was composed whilst he suffered an episode of depression following the onset (and harsh treatment for) syphilis. The D major sonata, however, was written in 1825 on a holiday to Gastein in the Austrian Alps, and is musically more confident and extravert, reminiscent of the 'Great' C major Symphony, begun during the same trip.

Douglas completes his programme with a pair of Liszt transcriptions from Schwanengesang: 'Liebesbotschaft' and 'Standchen'.

As with the other volumes in this series, Barry Douglas plays a Steinway Model D, and the recording was made in the Curtis Auditorium of the CIT Cork School of Music.
