Sergei Prokofiev's Piano Sonata No. 9 in C major, Op. 103 (1947) is a sonata for solo piano composed in 1947 and consists of four movements. The sonata was dedicated to Sviatoslav Richter, a member of the Union of Soviet Composers, and by whom it was first performed on 21 April 1951 in Moscow. (From Wikipedia)
[00:00] -- I. Allegretto
[08:20] -- II. Allegro strepitoso - Andantino - Allegro strepitoso
[11:20] -- III. Andante tranquillo
[19:00] -- IV. Allegro con brio, ma non troppo presto
Prokofiev's last two sonatas, 8 and 9, are extraordinary pieces of music, both for their musical organization and musical imagination, a rarity when these two things come together in such an eloquent manner as they do in these two sonatas.
Berman gives a very fine performance in the light of this work being indelibly associated with Richter.
Sandor, who Prokofiev gave the piece to first (first public performance), plays the opening movement with more delicacy than most pianists. Instead of rushing the tempo or playing things with disinterest... Sandor doesn't impress me with the other sonatas but he's my favorite for the 9th.
beautiful
Glad you liked it, fixed :)
Wow
Прекрасное исполнение! Абсолютно ясное, точное, глубокое, содержательное и соразмерное по форме. Настоящий Прокофьев зрелого периода.
lovely piece and good playing. However, the piece is in C major and not B flat major as written in the title.
Actually it is modal... you cannot quite say it has a tonality.
A lilting performance.
