Gather Disc 7 (2021)

<em>Gather</em> Disc 7

The final disc of Music@Menlo LIVE 2021 contrasts brooding musical tempers with light, lyricism, and optimism. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Piano Quartet in G minor, the first notable work of its kind, would inaugurate a rich repertoire tradition, nurtured in subsequent generations by Robert Schumann, Johannes Brahms, Antonín Dvořák, and many others. Franz Schubert’s sublime Fantasy in F minor likewise adopts a genre closely associated with Mozart−four-hand piano−but the ″Prince of Song″ makes it unmistakably his own. The disc concludes with Johannes Brahms’s Piano Quartet no. 3 in C minor, op. 60, written in the throes of romantic despair. ″You may place a picture on the title page, namely a head−with a pistol in front of it,″ he wrote to his publisher. ″This will give you some idea of the music.″   |   Liner Notes
