About

Music for piano occupies a position of importance in Schnittke's extensive catalogue, despite its relatively restricted dimensions.

The piano works in Schnittke's late period, after a serious stroke in 1985, reveal him struggling with a sense of suffering and the fragility of existence. In this perspective, the Sonata may evoke the image of Mahler: and this is not only due to its monumental proportion and cosmic scale, but also for the mingling of victory and defeat.

Daniela de Santis joins Giampaolo Nuti for the Sonatina for four hands.
