Description

In addition to his prodigious technical abilities, Alexander Malofeev has demonstrated great artistic maturity since his beginnings.<div> Opening with an unmeasured prelude by Louis Couperin as a space of freedom, the program reveals a mosaic of inner landscapes.</div><div> In Sergei Prokofiev's work, a few miniatures sketch fleeting impressions, such as The Walk, which leads us towards a sunlit landscape. The tranquility of Tchaikovsky's delicately poetic pages later gives way to the ferocity of William Bolcom's Rag infernal, foreshadowing Liszt's fierce Mephisto Waltz.</div><div><br></div><div> Program</div><div> Louis Couperin • Prelude, La Piémontoise, Canaries</div><div> François Couperin • The Nightingale in Love</div><div> Sergei Prokofiev • Prelude, Promenade, Allemande, Capriccio, Sonata No. 9</div><div> Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky • Reverie, Rustic Echo, Dancing Scene</div><div> William Bolcom • Infernal Rag</div><div> Franz Liszt • Miserere, Mephistopheles Waltz No. 1</div><div><br></div>
