Arcadi Volodos / Piano Recital
Schubert / Schumann / Liszt
Dark passion
There is nothing the Russian pianist Arcadi Volodos could not play on his instrument. He quickly made a name for himself as a specialist in the highly virtuosic repertoire, but he also has a deep insight into the music like very few pianists of his generation. The Süddeutsche Zeitung accurately described him as »a searcher, a thinker, a spiritual musician«.
Arcadi Volodos is the perfect artist to perform the music of Franz Schubert, who, with the piano sonatas of his middle and late creative period, opened the door to a sound cosmos of unfathomable breadth. The Piano Sonata D 845 – a work full of drama and dark passion – is a particularly beautiful part of that cosmos.
