Gábor Csalog Sundays – Dialogues with (the) Music | Schubert and the Infinity
Franz Schubert: Piano Sonata in G major, D. 894
- Gábor Csalog – piano
- Gergely Fazekas, musicologist
In 1838, when Robert Schumann discovered Franz Schubert's Symphony in C major (ten years after the composer's death), he wrote a detailed account of it, emphasising the piece's "heavenly length". "It is like a four-volume, lengthy novel", he summed up, which the writer cannot finish, "and for the best of reasons, so that the reader can also recreate it". The hypersensitive Schumann touched on one of the most exciting aspects of Schubert's music: these works offer the listener a sense of infinity, partly through their scope, partly through the ever renewing possibilities of interpretation they offer, partly through a special musical quality. The 2024-25 season of Gábor Csalog Sundays will focus on Schubert's music, and on the first evening the pianist and his regular conversation partner, music historian Gergely Fazekas, will explore the theme of musical infinity before the grand G major Sonata is performed. The language of the conversation is Hungarian.
