description
When Wolfram Schmitt‐Leonardy’s recording of the Preludes was first released in 2011, critics reached for the superlatives: ‘In his recording of Chopin’s 24 Preludes, Wolfram Schmitt-Leonardy achieves a fusion of impassioned ardor and classical textual rigor… the best of Schmitt-Leonardy’s Chopin adds up to a stimulating and compelling listening journey well worth traveling, even if you’ve heard these works hundreds of times.’(Jed Distler, Classics Today). Now the Preludes have been recoupled with new recordings of the Ballades and Impromptus, made in January 2015 and also made available within the latest version of Brilliant Classics’ Chopin Edition (94660). With their more intricate structures and longer-form narratives, these works also respond to the sureness of touch and steady pulse that make Schmitt‐Leonardy particularly acclaimed for his Brahms. Hebuilds the Ballades patiently and with awareness of the extrovert spirit identified by one of Chopin’s contemporaries as ‘animated by the strangeness of the Romantic world, sung in a melancholy tone, in a serious style, simple and natural in its expressions.’
