in Piano International (Nov, 2015)
Imogen Cooper’s most recent Schumann disc comprises music solely by Robert (previous instalments on this label have coupled his music with that of his wife, Clara, or by Brahms). Cooper remains one of the sovereign pianists: everything she touches exudes integrity, the highest understanding coupled with a melting beauty of sound. Witness the superb articulation within a perfectly Schumannesque soundworld of the opening F-sharp minor Novelette, and the amazing sense of rightness. Cooper projects the form perfectly, and her way with the Innigkeit side of the Davidsbundlertanze is worth the price of the disc alone: within the space of three minutes, Book I No 3 traverses universes, while the Zart und …

Prelude
Jesu, Maria – I am near to death (1. Teil)
Kyrie eleïson
Rouse thee, my fainting soul, and play the man
Be merciful, be gracious; spare him, Lord’
Sanctus fortis, Sanctus Deus
I can no more; for now it comes again’
Rescue him, o Lord, in this his evil hour
Novissima hora est; and I fain would sleep
Profiscere, anima Christiana, de hoc mundo!
Go, in the name of Angels and Archangels
Introduction: I went to sleep; and now I am refersh’d (2. Teil)
My work is done
It is a member of that family
I ever had believed
But hark! Upon my sense comes a fierce hubbub’
Low-born clods of brute earth’
The mind bold and independent
I see not those false spirits
Praise to the Holiest in the height
Glory to him, who evermore by truth and justice reigns
But hark! A grand, mysterious harmony
Praise to the Holiest in the height
Thy judgment now is near
Jesu! By that shuddering dread which fell on thee
I go before my judge
Praise to his name!
Take me away, and the lowest deep there let me be
Lord, Thou hast been our refuge: in every generation
Softly and gently, dearly-ransom’d soul
