Work: Piano Sonata no. 20 in A major, D.959

Stepping in to replace Stephen Kovacevich, Jonathan Biss’ Schubert alternates between insight and impatience.

The British pianist reveals new ideas in the most familiar of music in this recital program, which concludes a multi-year return to Schubert's keyboard literature.

Once decried as “dangerously introspective”, Schubert's Piano Sonata D.959 is now seen as one of his masterpieces. Eric Lu shows how he is completely on the composer's wavelength in this compelling performance.
