David Deveau's 2015 release on Steinway & Sons is an homage to three of the major figures of 19th century Romanticism, Franz Liszt, Johannes Brahms, and Richard Wagner. The piano was essential to Liszt and Brahms, and their works remain central in the modern repertoire, though Wagner's few contributions to piano music were minor. Even the title piece, Wagner's Siegfried Idyll, originally composed for a small chamber orchestra, appears here in a piano transcription by Josef Rubinstein, so its place on the program among keyboard works by Liszt and Brahms seems odd indeed. That said, Deveau's sympathy for all three composers is strong, and he makes this recital feel genuinely Romantic and passionate without indulging in the excesses of rubato and inaccurate dynamics typical of the style. While his playing allows for more playfulness and flexibility of tempo in Brahms' Capriccios and Intermezzos, he never veers into exaggerated gestures or sentimentality, and controls the rhapsodic impulse with introspection, most affectingly in the Intermezzo in E flat major, Op. 117, No. 1.
