Impromptu Classics is a record label started in June of 2008, with its first CD released to online stores August 24,
2008 to highly favorable reception. The debut CD includes works of Chopin, Flagello, and Rachmaninoff played by prizewinning
pianist, Rorianne Schrade, whose recordings on the Centaur label have been praised for years by the press and the public.
The second release of Impromptu Classics, a live 25th Anniversary Concert by Howard Aibel, became
available on CDBaby, Amazon, and other retailers in 2009. Buy it today on I-Tunes! It has already received glowing reviews
in the American Record Guide and the Juilliard Journal. In this centennial year of Samuel Barber, one will be hard pressed
to find a more exciting rendition of the composer's tremendous Sonata for piano.
Volume I of Robert
Schrade Live at Carnegie Hall was released in 2010 and was also greeted with a rave review in American Record Guide (see review
on separate page), ending with the line "I can't wait" for Volume II. Volume II is now here and will be available
by February, 2011!
Exciting collections by other talented artists are planned, soon to be added
to the Impromptu Classics label. Please check back for recordings of musical excellence from emerging artists and established
masters.
