Violinist Jacqueline Ross and fortepianist Maggie Cole offer copiously researched, historically informed accounts of three bravura works by Franz Schubert, performed on period instruments and with due reference to autograph and other relevant source materials. One of the works was originally composed for flute and piano; the two echt violin-piano compositions have been described by Alfred Einstein as substitutes for ‘the violin concerto which Schubert never wrote’, such is their virtuosity. All three pieces demonstrate Schubert’s fertile melodic invention, subtle harmonic language and close affinity with the human voice.
