CD ReviewsBeautiful Aesthetic Integrity: the Art of Robert Fuchs... Sébastien Melmoth | Hôtel d'Alsace, PARIS | 12/13/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) ".
Disc features the truly beautiful Sonatas for solo piano by the unfortunately forgotten Robert Fuchs (1847-1927), as expertly realized by Daniel Blumenthal, and recorded on Marco Polo (Naxos) in Heidelberg, 1991. "Fuchs is a splendid musician; everything is so fine and so skillful, so charmingly invented, that one is always pleased"--Johannes Brahms, Vienna, c.1890. Companion of Brahms and Weingartner; incredibly influential professor of harmony at the Vienna Conservatory; teacher of Mahler, Zemlinsky, Wolf, Schreker, Schmidt, Wolf, and Sibelius; Fuchs was also a proflic original artist who produced works of a very high aesthetic quality in virtually all genres, all reflecting the same "pure, unclouded grace and sophistication." Fuchs' ethos may perhaps be described as a very clean synthesis of Brahms and Schubert. Two large Piano Sonatas: Op. 19 (1877) Op. 88 (1910) TT: :73mins. (NOTE: this is same disc as ASIN: B000024OLO). ." |
