Pianist Mitsuko Uchida’s storied career spans dozens of acclaimed recordings and performances, and she also leads Vermont’s Marlboro Music Festival. She has earned a reputation for profound interpretations that balance sinew and sensitivity, crystalline articulation and vivid dynamic contrasts. Considered one of the great Schubert interpreters, she’s been on a years-long global tour devoted exclusively to Schubert. Here she reveals the unforced lyricism, emotional depth and technical brilliance of three Schubert piano sonatas: the tragic and intense A minor, the sunny E-flat major and the A major, written shortly before Schubert’s death.
