This 9-CD collection brings together pianist Wilhelm Kempff’s complete Schubert recordings on Deutsche Grammophon. The recordings cover sonatas, impromptus, Moments musicaux and much more.
“Kempff’s play of light and shade and poetic charisma color every page, whether freely experimental or ideally structured. No other pianist has communicated Schubert with a greater sense of his final transcendence of earthly pain and travail.”
