This new recording features two lesser known piano masterworks by the young Schumann: the F minor Piano Sonata, in which the classical sonata form is infused with Schumann’s unique romantic outpourings, and the Humoreske, the last of his piano cycles in which his alter egos Florestan and Eusebius make their presence. + Young Italian pianist Vincenzo Maltempo attracted worldwide attention with his three-volume recording of piano works by Alkan, collecting numerous 5 star reviews in the musical press: Guardian (“exhilarating, a real revelation!”), Diapason, Gramophone and Piano News.
