About

Franz Schubert’s gift for songwriting transfers into the lyrical sensitivities in his instrumental music. Composed for himself and friends to play at musical evenings, the brilliant Rondo, D608 shares the musical burden equally between the parts.

The Sonata for Piano Duet, D617 echoes the spirit of Mozart and was written for the daughters of Count Esterházy, the Six Grandes Marches et Trios having their place in the ballroom. Of these, Nos 2 and 3 can be found in Vol.5 (8570354), which was a Gramophone ‘Editor’s Choice’.
