Pianist Young-Ah Tak's artistry shines in her latest album on the Steinway & Sons label, featuring sensitive performances of two Schubert sonatas.

“I have been drawn towards the music of Franz Schubert for as long as I can remember. My first experience studying a Schubert sonata was at age 12, and from then on it has been an important part of my repertoire. Playing Schubert’s music gives me inspiration, much joy, and meaning. I feel truly privileged when performing pieces by Schubert. His melodies and musical ideas unfolding so naturally and perfectly within a well-structured classical sonata form is truly inspirational. I believe Schubert's sonatas resonate with the human spirit - their beauty, joy, sadness, drama, and yearning. There is such an emotional depth reflected in this music. Mastering these two different but equally profound sonatas has been a magnificent journey for me.”
