柴可夫斯基: 四季

內容簡介

內容簡介 Peter Tchaikovsky composed one of the most popular piano concertos in the repertory, but in solorecital programmes his name is rarely seen. Although little known, his solo piano music cannevertheless be surprisingly rewarding. It includes two large-scale sonatas – a youthful work in Csharp minor, and the Grand Sonata in G major recorded here – and a large number of mainly shortpieces published either singly or as collections throughout the composer's life. This type of work wasprofitable for composer and publishers, and an indication of the relative commercial value comesfrom a letter in which Tchaikovsky offers his publisher the Grand Sonata for only 50 roubles, but asks240 roubles for the twenty-four little pieces of his Children's Album, Op. 39. A work of big, publicgestures, the sonata is anything but childish and to a large extent Tchaikovsky keeps the lyrical ideasthat came so naturally to him firmly under control. In contrast, lyricism was given free rein two yearsearlier, in the twelve pieces that make up The Seasons. They were the result of a commission for aseries of piano pieces to appear in a monthly St Petersburg journal. Some ten years after the serialpublication in the journal the pieces appeared in print as a collection which has becomeTchaikovsky's best-known solo piano music. As with much of his work in this genre, the ultimatemodel is Schumann: January, for example, combines hints of Schumannesque Innigkeit withTatiana's music in Eugene Onegin. With the present recording Freddy Kempf, who made hisacclaimed debut recording with Schumann's Carnaval and has gone on to demonstrate his versatilityin programmes taking in Bach as well as Liszt and Stravinsky, now adds Tchaikovsky to hisdiscography.
