Editorial Reviews

Schubert's lovely works are best rendered by artists attuned to their lyric abundance, most notably the late Arthur Grumiaux, whose Philips discs remain supreme. But overlook this pair of accomplished period instrument specialists at your peril, for the duo infuse the music with romantic feeling and shape it with subtle rubato. Olga Tverskaya's fortepiano is a gorgeous instrument, with a rich, wooly bass, a velvety middle, and a ringing top. Fabio Biondi plays with romantic sensibility, fabulous technique, and, in the big Sonata in A major, depth and drama. This music can sound sticky sweet; here it's full of life and dynamism, with flowing lyricism that's irresistible. --Dan Davis
