Echoing her acclaimed solo recital in May 2023, Elisabeth Leonskaja’s latest program once again combines music of the Second Viennese School with major works of the Romantic repertoire. This season, she has chosen Schoenberg’s Op. 25 Suite and Op. 19 Piano Pieces, framing these revolutionary compositions with a pair of Schubert’s piano sonatas that are just as innovative: the A-minor Sonata D 845 and the “Gastein” Sonata D 850, both written in 1825.
Approximate running time: 1h 45m with one intermission
