Description

"It has been years since a musical composition has done me as much good as the one I recently heard. It is as if your lay open before me." (Robert Schumann to Henselt on August 7, 1837) Adolph Henselt's four impromptus are pearls of Romantic piano music which ranked alongside the works of Chopin and Liszt in the 19th century. Henselt's unique style is far removed from the blanced feeling for sound and counterpoint. Henselt was a fervent admirer of Bach throughout his life. It should also be pointed out that the Impromtus are not concert pieces of awe-inspiring virtuosity but pieces of medium technical difficulty.

Works:

  • Impromptu in C Minor, Op. 7
  • Impromptu No. 2, Op. 17
  • Impromptu No. 3 in B-flat Minor, Op. 34
  • Impromptu No. 4 in B Minor, Op. 37
