Maurizio Pollini Daniele Pollini

SCHUBERT Maurizio & Daniele Pollini

Schubert Pollini 

Piano Sonate No. 18 in G Major, D. 894 6 Moments musicaux, D. 780 Fantasy for Piano 4 Hands in F Minor, D 940

In June 2022, the late Italian pianist Maurizio Pollini and his son Daniele, who shared a special love for Schubert, recorded their new album that is dedicated to three essential aspects of the Viennese composer&rsquo;s piano music: the sonatas, the cycles of short pieces and the music for four hands.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
It is sadly Maurizio&rsquo;s last ever recording, as he died in March 2024 at the age of 82. Thus, this touching and at the same time profound album by two generations of musicians becomes a legacy and a hopeful look into the future: &ldquo;With the recent death of my father, the perspective with which I imagined the record and the whole process of its realisation inevitably changed,&rdquo; says Daniele Pollini. &ldquo;What presented itself as a very special occasion turned into a unique event, in fact unrepeatable. I am therefore very happy to have had the opportunity to make this album dedicated to Schubert and to have shared with my father what was his last recording.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The album is released digitally and on CD with an accompanying booklet featuring a note on the repertoire by Paolo Petazzi.&nbsp;
