BFM5 Steven Osborne plays Schubert

Liebesbotschaft (arr. Osborne)
Allegretto in C major D346
Am Meer (arr. Osborne)
Piano Sonata in C minor D958
Piano Sonata in Bb D960

Schubert’s extraordinary late piano sonatas were written at the very end of his life.   These beautiful timeless masterpieces carry an almost bewildering range of emotions from sunlight to tragedy, from optimism to wistful resignation.  Steven Osborne who was Artist in Residence in 2015is regarded as one of the finest Schubert pianists of today and this programme promises to be very special indeed.
