  • Gets Under My Skin -- In a Good Way...

    By Rick Ramble
    I had never paid any attention to Schubert's solo piano music, but since I first heard the haunting strains of the Impromptu No. 1 in C minor (D.899) on my local classical radio station, the melody gnawed away at my brain until I could resist no longer - I HAD TO HAVE THIS MUSIC. I then spent exhausting hours checking the reviews and listening to clips, until finally settling on Murray Perahia. Happy to report, excellent judgment on my part -- beautifully realized, sensitive, lilting, deeply emotive, blah, blah, blah... I've since become familiar with the remaining pieces on this album, which is chock full of crystalline Schubertian lyricism -- the perfect musical companion for those quiet moments when time slows down and you dare not breathe for fear of breaking the spell (or fear of upsetting the cat who has settled comfortably in your lap). Whatever, it's a testament to the music's power that now I can't get *any* of the melodies out of my head. Thanks, Murray :) The very definition of musical intimacy -- I can't recommend it enough. Many thumbs up.

    I believe this is best interpretation of Schubert's Impomptus on iTunes!
