Editorial Reviews
Album Description

Erich W. Korngold (1897-1957)

Complete Piano Sonatas, Four Caricatures fo Children, Op. 19, Tales of Strauss, Op. 21

Michael Schäfer, piano

Erich Wolfgang Korngold was an exceptional pianist and his compositions have their own individual style and an absolutely independent character. Korngold began composing as a child and played with maturity of an adult, which set him apart from other 'child geniuses'. Richard Strauss wrote glowingly, "To learn that this music was written by an eleven-year-old boy fills me with shock...it is really extraordinary!"
