On his new album “31” pianist Fabian Müller plays the late work of Franz Schubert – the Piano Sonatas nos.19-21 as well as Drei Klavierstücke, D946. The idea behind this recording is to play the late works as a young person-in view of the fact that Schubert himself was a young man when he composed them. Müller plays the pieces lovingly, peaceful. Sad, but at the same time incredibly happy–and in his Interpretations he likes to take liberties with the tempo and sometimes leaves out repetitions. “It’s important to take the composer seriously, but it’s also important not to over-do it. In the end, it often remains a mystery what the composer really wanted anyway. That’s why I have great confidence in making my own decisions,” Müller says. Reviews BBC Music Magazine May 2022 “Müller looks beyond the maudlin quality so often attributed to these late works. Indeed, he finds the colour in them, with a lightness of touch and a positive disregard for certain tempos. – 4 out of 5 stars |
