The Music Plays On — Leoš Janáček’s Piano Music

Leoš Janáček

After having watched András Schiff’s fantastic masterclass on Janáček’s In the Mists, I was compelled to revisit the piano music of this unique genius from Moravia and share my favorite recordings.

Without doubt, Schiff’s recordings are some of the greatest modern recordings available. His knowledge of music’s architecture — he approaches making music like a composer, the true music makers — is unparalleled.
