REVIEWS OF PIANOWORKS:
“Pianoworks is a stunning debut, a meticulously produced and packaged album that captures the essence of Schoenberg’s style.”
~ Jim Roberts, Valley Advocate, Western Mass
“Steven Schoenberg’s kaleidoscopic piano speaks with a uniquely American voice; it possesses a vocabulary that spans the decade. His flowing compositions, laced with stride, folk, modern jazz and impressionistic styles, burst open into full-scale musical dioramas.”
~ Tom Regan, Prairie Public Radio
“Schoenberg performs spontaneously improvised works and yet each one has the polish, sophistication and technical mastery of a complex piece of music.”
~ David Sokol, Music Editor, Valley Advocate
I think Steven’s music is some of the most incomparably beautiful music I’ve ever heard. When I listen, I am transported. . .to someplace very peaceful. If I were to be banished to an island and could take music, his would be among what I’d choose. . .and if there were only two choices, Schoenberg would be one!
~ Lee Thornton, Senior Host, Weekend Edition, All Things Considered, National Public Radio
“Schoenberg is a bright young composer, and his sparkling album “Pianoworks” is almost 45 minutes of Schoenberg’s solo improvisations, most of them from a concert he gave in Amherst College. He’s a lyrical player with a gift for delicate interlocking melodies and extended single not runs high up the keyboard. . .On “Gesture” Schoenberg develops a pretty but slight opening theme and works it up, thickening the textures a bit, varying the dynamics, dotting it with quick runs, making it more elaborate but not pretentious – at the beginning you’d hardly have thought the little theme could have endured all of the weight. Of course it’s standard business, the thematic elaboration, but only the gifted players are able to do it well. And following “Gesture,” Schoenberg diverges into a piece called “Blue Rag” which isn’t so much a rag as a dirty boogie-woogie with a rolling eight-to-the-bar rhythm and an uplifting bluesy after-hours feeling.”
~ Ray Murphy, Boston Globe
