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.
