TREASURES Rudolf Buchbinder

Schubert: Treasures

On his upcoming album,&nbsp;Rudolf Buchbinder&nbsp;celebrates his 80th&nbsp;birthday this year by turning to a composer whose music has&nbsp;accompanied&nbsp;him for decades. On it, the legendary pianist performs Schubert&rsquo;s piano dances to mark this milestone in his remarkable career.&nbsp;
In early 19th-century Vienna, dances such as German dances, L&auml;ndler and Ecossaises were hugely popular. Schubert&rsquo;s collections captured the spirit of the time, answering the era&rsquo;s appetite for sociability and entertainment. Yet beneath their graceful surface lies a deeper emotional world. Longing and melancholy resonate throughout these pieces, as if Schubert sensed how little time he would be granted on earth.&nbsp;&nbsp;
These miniatures open fleeting glimpses into a mysterious cosmos, poised between the polished parquet of Vienna&rsquo;s ballrooms and something almost transcendent. With esprit,&nbsp;spontaneity&nbsp;and the authority of a career spanning&nbsp;nearly seven&nbsp;decades, Buchbinder brings these worlds vividly to life.&nbsp;
&ldquo;Franz Schubert&rsquo;s dances have&nbsp;accompanied&nbsp;me throughout my life. His dances &ndash; like his songs &ndash; are miniature worlds with a gigantic heart,&rdquo; says the pianist.&nbsp;
The full album is released on 29 May digitally and as a 2CD digipack&nbsp;edition and&nbsp;is now available for pre-order.&nbsp;
