Impromptu No. 3

Schubert composed Impromptu No. 3 the year before he died. It was a deliverance of his infirmity. The sublime and immaculate lyricism of the sweet melody of this piece is confined by strain and discomfort in the harmonic texture of the eighth note pattern, ever moving, suggestive of flutterings of a human heart. A dramaturgy of a beautiful prayer, flowing peacefully in search of the realization of one’s sentient existence. Pensive passion bridges the translucent emotions through the return of the innocent melody, this time moving at a slower pace in the presence of a peaceful remembrance indulged in a sense of gratitude.
