Available in:
As a pianist a legend, he is still largely unknown as a composer.
Maybe because he did not pick up any of his pieces. I never perform my own compositions, because when I finish a composition, I have the desire to start with the next one. I can not spend time practicing my own compositions. They are not easy to play. I hardly know her. Benedikt Koehlen, however, knows them, and has brilliantly recorded the Seven Pieces for piano from 1946 (cpo 999 881 - distribution: jpc). They belong to the late work, are sparse, often only two-part structures that have shaken off all ornamental and loop rhythmically concise through the tonal space. Schnabel knows how to bend phrases boldly into the sky and back again. He draws and pulls effects from flowing free-tonal-melodic lines of force without relying on traditional harmony.
Absolutely modern, as can be seen in the Piano Trio (1945), played by the Ravinia Trio and in the String Quartet No. 5 (1940), played by the Pellegrini Quartet, that allows each instrument to operate largely independently.
Schnabel develops his own musical language, which clearly shows his narrative talent. Although he does not abstain from strict organization (he can write twelve-fold without anyone noticing), but the free musical advancement is always in the foreground of his music. He never repeats himself, his phrases often sound as if they originated from the moment.
