"Leif Ove Andsnes here deals beautifully with the Sonata itself. Andsnes's performance is smooth and warmly expressive, with the final tarantella going at a galloping lick. Bostridge, too, is in fine form, evincing a tremulous vulnerability in Schubert's settings of three poems of Romantic alienation: his singing suggests a great surrounding stillness." BBC Music Five Stars

"…Andsnes opens proceedings with a superlative account of the C minor Sonata… If there is a more exuberant recording of the final tarantella I have yet to hear it. I love the heroic tone Bostridge brings to Lebensmut ("Courage for Living") and Johanna Sebus ("The dam bursts, the fields roar...") in performances of wonderful freshness and spontaneity. Bravo." Gramophone
