With this 12th installment of his grand tour of Franz Schubert piano works, the internationally renowned pianist Gerhard Oppitz now concludes his journey. Included here are the Sonata in D Major, D. 850, the Rondo in E Major, D 506 and the 12 Waltzes, D 969. Mr. Oppitz’s understanding of the musical depth of Schubert's creations has proven all the more effective for its unobtrusive understatement. His talents in drawing out the narrative logic of each large-scale Sonata while appropriately engaging the smaller Schubertian jewels of pianistic invention are well known and highly regarded.
