A wonderful selection of Dances for piano by Schubert, works he originally conceived for his circle of friends who gathered for the so-called "Schubertiads". This program shows Schubert as the grand master of the smaller musical forms, for which he was very famous already during his lifetime. This is essential Schubert, but difficult if not impossible to find in the current CD catalogues.
Trudelies Leonhardt (yes, she is Gustav Leonhardt's sister!) brings all the simple charms and beauties of this music to life with authoritative performances of these works on a beautiful original Viennese fortepiano, built around 1815 by Benignus Seidner and re- stored to its full glory in 1987.
