"Schubert's completed piano sonatas take us on a unique and heart-wrenching journey through the last 12 years of his life. From the charming lyricism of the early sonatas to the transcendent creativity of the late masterpieces, via harrowing moments of despair as his health started to decline. His sonatas express with directness and sincerity some of the most fundamental elements of human experience—longing, consolation, despair, joy, loss, nostalgia, and hope. In our time, his music is as essential and poignant as ever."—Paul Lewis
Launched as part of HKU MUSE's 10th Anniversary Celebration, British pianist Paul Lewis returned to HKU to present Schubert's 11 completed sonatas and the unfinished yet celebrated 'Reliquie'. Hailed by The New York Times as "one of today's finest exponents of Schubert", Lewis led audiences on a deeply moving trail across four concerts spanning two years, delving into some of the most intimate and sincere facets of human emotion.
「舒伯特鋼琴奏鳴曲全集是一趟獨特又教人揪心的音樂旅程——由初期作品青澀甜美的旋律，至晚期飽受疾病折磨的藝術昇華——讓我們體會到作曲家短暫人生的最後十二年時光。舒伯特以直率、誠摯的手法表達人生最實在的情感：思念、慰藉、悲慟、喜悅、失落、緬懷和希望。他的音樂歷久彌堅、扣人心弦。」——李維斯
