Description:

Pi-Sheng Cheng is a Taiwanese-born pianist based in Germany. Although her musical career spans nearly half a century, her repertoire is dominated by contemporary works by Stockhausen, Boulez, Cage, and others, and her interpretations of these works have made her a role model for younger pianists. Of course, she also excels in classical and romantic works, and in this three-CD set, she presents her beloved Schubert sonatas, all but the 20-year-old "No. 7" from his later years, revealing Schubert's pianism in the tradition of Beethoven and Haydn while carefully portraying his inner world. The program carefully depicts Schubert's inner world while revealing his pianism in the tradition of Beethoven and Haydn. Naxos Japan
