About

A further selection of timeless illustrations of the pure sound of Austro-Hungarian pianism, here masterfully rendered by Annie Fischer. She offers a dynamic, almost combative alternative to the great Clara Haskil, conveying Mozart’s irrepressible festivity and giocoso when at liberty to write as he pleases. Her intrinsically operatic approach also miraculously pervades Schubert’s late work.
