You know you’re in safe hands the moment Perianes and his Steinway strike the first notes of the haunting and masterly Sonata in B flat, D960, completed two months before Schubert’s death. The tone, like the acoustic, is gentle and warm, throwing into stark relief the shadows cast by the left hand’s bass trill – a troubling sound that keeps recurring, like a burrowing, malevolent mole. ... [In the] smaller, daintier A major Sonata, D664 ... Perianes again shows consummate skill dappling the tapestry with clouds, constantly shifting moods with a sureness of touch and attack right through to the celebratory finale.
