Classical Music / Schubert Music
Franz Schubert's Impromptus are a series of eight pieces for solo piano composed in 1827, published in two sets of four impromptus each:
The first two pieces in this Set 1 in D 899, Op. 90 - were published in Schubert's lifetime as Op. 90. The third and fourth pieces were published in 1857 (although the third piece was printed by the publisher in G major, instead of G-flat as Schubert had written it, and remained available only in this key for many years).
I'm sharing two interpretations from two brilliant interpreters of Schubert's music, pianists Maria João Pires and Alfred Brendel.
Note: The second set, D. 935, Op. 142, was published posthumously, as Op. 142 in 1839 (with a dedication to Franz Liszt added by the publisher. Three other unnamed piano compositions (D. 946), written a few months before the composer's death, in May 1828, are also known as both "Impromptus" and Klavierstücke ("piano pieces").
