I like all Staier's Bach, Scarlatti. His performance is always 'Masculine'. This great allegretto impromtu is too. Staier's Schubert is as impressive and fascinating as his Baroque. Thank you for sharing!!
Really? As this is the first time I've heard the piece, whom would you recommend, and why? As far as I know, Mr Staier is a specialist on these instruments, and he seems to be able to wring maximum colour out of them. I must say I also like Schiff's Schubert. I'd be most interested to know your recommendation.
@@kyleethekelt I think the first piece is too fast, and the pianist neglects the melodic interest. An allegro assai should still be an allegro and should not go ínto the presto and prestissimo "territory". Schiff also tends to play classical repertoire too fast because he can. It is anachronistic - the pianist with 20th. C training and technique applies this to earlier music of a completely different tradition. Schiff is actually very clear, even at a fast speed.
@@petertyrrell3391 Ah, I hear what you mean. I'll look for other interpretations, then. So hard to find them on fortepiano, even today. Schiff is on record as believing that fast should have what he referred to as "speed limits", so I think it's unfair to state that he plays too fast because he can, particularly after his stint on fortepianos which, as he stated in that same lecture at Wigmore Hall on the B flat Sonata, "changed my life". Nga mihi.

Tout est mauvais dans cette version ! Le piano n’est pas en cause mais bien le pianiste qui ne parvient pas à faire sortir la mélodie de l’accompagnement ; heureusement il existe de bonnes versions de cet impromptu sur instruments d’époque !

Allegro Assai includes so many Winterreise motifs... you can almost sing to it.
Forgot to add: I really like this recording on forte.
🙏💓🌹
Doskonałe!
