For me, the tempo of the 1st movement is absolutely perfect. Schubert's music were not written for show-off, we can't blindly boost up the tempo just to display virtuosity and thus neglect the most crucial thing. That is, to loose to feel schubert's inner world from the bottom of his heart, to realize his thought about e.g. loneliness, sorrow, faith, friendship ...and even his approaching death at that time through the music

Schubert's music is dream-like, floating on a cloud of mystery, melancholy, and veiled sweetness. Much of it sounds improvised. It's complex, introspective writing. This performance is spot-on. The music drifts and then regains focus, etc. Not unlike many of us.Thank you for posting it.

Excellent analysis, Steve. Schubert stands alone as a melodist and harmonicist; his superhuman abilities in these areas allow us to forgive his occasional structural and formal meanderings. He's the beautiful girl who keeps breaking your heart that you can't stay mad at!

It just seemed to fly above Sokolov's head that it is one. He plays it way too slow. But I'll concede that he does marvellous things with the music that wouldn't work at a faster pace. Nontheless I prefer Radu Lupu's approach.

This recording is a real victory for Sokolov, in some places ever so slightly a little fast for me but perfect only a fraction of a second later, he has a real sense of dynamics and letting the music breathe, it has everything: sincere tenderness without lacking attack and aggressiveness when necessary, While it is not a perfect performance for me, It is very very close - full of beauty and color and emotion where as many others I find kind of dry and unemotional. I will say this is probably the closest to a perfect performance I have heard so far. Without question his interpretation is completely his own, never heard anyone play it quite like that, very unique and a strong statement and that's exactly what you want as a performer trying to find out what you want to say and what you want to do with it. His performance is confident and convincing because I think he knew what he wanted to do with it and played it so many times that the colors came out willingly, by that time everything was second nature and a sound he was hearing in head that it was only a matter of releasing the sound with fingers that had already acquired what I call muscle memory, the fingers already know where to go because of repetition. I feel many other recordings have all one or the other - sensitive but lacking attack or the opposite aggressive but lacking sensitivity and I just can't stand it when the tempo is dragging. Maybe the best interpreters are part man and part woman - masculine aggressiveness with feminine sensitivity beauty and eloquence. I think the difference between a great artist and a great pianist is musical conception and making decisions of how to shape the music, not just playing dots on a sheet of paper - attention to detail and understanding what each phrase means, how it relates to the whole and translating that into answers to questions like do i play this a little faster or slower or louder or more quiet or a little rubato to add suspense - overall what may seem like a small detail that may be overlooked by most can be an important shift in dynamics - what may seem small to most is huge to others. Without his interpretations I think I would still be searching for I don't even know what and when I hear performances like this it's like I found what I was looking for when I didn't even know what I was looking for. I'm staring to become obsessed with getting and preserving everything I can by him and before I started coming here I never even heard of him so its all your fault !

+Radwan El Hariri That's exactly one reason why he cannot be considered fully romantic: he was NOT a peaceful person, but he rarely tried to represent all his troubles, sadness, anger and fear in his music. That's a very classical perspective. And moreover his forms and harmonies were very strict (not always, of course). He could be considered a pioneer of romanticism, not a full romantic. That doesn't make him any less great than he was, he was a genius and I love a lot of his music

Genius is often misunderstood, is ahead of its time, goes against the norm and as a result is often scoffed at, ignored and in some cases met with opposition, even violent opposition in some cases. Remember when people used to say the earth is flat? Bach was never popular, it was not until much later people like Mendelssohn made attempts to revive his music. Schubert was never popular in his lifetime and basically admired by a small circle of musicians, his music was unpublished during his life. If I am right it was through the efforts of I think Brahms perhaps others all his manuscripts were compiled the published as a whole, I'm not sure. His second symphony apparently was enormously influential and many of his works were transcribed by people that were popular. It is not uncommon for it to take a lot of time to appreciate the contributions that a genius created. Another thing that can happen especially in music is the style can go out of fation like it did with Moszkowski for example.
