Fanfare RAVE review for Schubert by Candlelight

Posted by Reference Recordings on
 February 12, 2024

Fanfare’s January/February 2024 issue features a rave review for Sergei Kvitko’s Schubert by Candlelight recording:

  • Schubert by Candlelight — Live in Madrid
    Select options

“For every dozen pianists who record Schubert’s evergreen Moments musicaux and Impromptus, there is rarely one who plays with the presence and artistic maturity of Sergei Kvitko. There are stretches of this live recital from Madrid in 2022 when Kvitko’s depth of expression evoked echoes of classic Schubert pianists on the order of Edwin Fischer and Artur Schnabel. It isn’t surprising that he had toured extensively with this program before deciding that a particular evening in Madrid found all the stars aligned. These are lived-in readings that reflect unalloyed love and respect for Schubert.… outstanding recital, which I think deserves to be ranked among the best Schubert piano releases in years.”

—Huntley Dent, Fanfare
