The great Italian legend of the piano Maurizio Pollini sadly passed-away earlier this year, on 23rdMarch 2024. This album recorded together with his son Daniele, is dedicated to three different aspects of Schubert's piano oeuvre covering: the sonatas, the collections of short pieces, and music for four hands. The first time that both musicians performed a piano work for four hands: Schubert's great F minor Fantasy. The release is accompanied by a 16-page booklet with an essay by Maurizio Pollini's long-time companion Paolo Petazzi. “Schubert was certainly one of my father’s most beloved composers. As a boy, listening to his beautiful performances of the Sonatas D 960 and D 894 made me understand the greatness of Schubert’s music.” - Daniele Pollini
