The romantic theme of the wanderer, the free spirit undertaking a journey into the self, runs through Seong-Jin Cho’s latest solo album. The globetrotting Korean pianist’s program includes two monuments of the 19th-century repertoire - Schubert’s “Wanderer” Fantasy and Liszt’s Piano Sonata in B minor. The Wanderer also contains Alban Berg’s Piano Sonata Op. 1 , a single-movement work of extraordinary intensity.
