Franz Schubert’s Sonata for Arpeggione embraces whole worlds of emotion; Robert Schumann’s pieces are filled with the most profound poetry. Here Beckmann and distinguished pianist Elena Braslavsky form an exquisite partnership. Classical form combined with sensitive Romanticism and  sublime melody – this is great, timeless music, in all its energy and humanity.
