For her 10th anniversary with Berlin Classics, the US pianist Claire Huangci presents herself and her label with a weighty recording project, Schubert’s late sonatas D 894, D 958, D 959 and D 960, as well as the Three Piano Pieces D 946 and a selection of songs from Schwanengesang. She accompanies the baritone Thomas E. Bauer in four of the songs, and plays two in an arrangement by Franz Liszt. To be heard in a box with 3 albums under the title META. META stands for the importance of Schubert’s music in Claire Huangci’s personal and musical life. It is Schubert’s compositions, which she has played since her earliest youth, “that show my development, that reflect unconscious emotions”, as she writes in the booklet. Schubert’s music is “the music I would like to take with me to a desert island. Schubert has accompanied me through all times”, especially the late sonatas, which are at the centre of the META box.
