The young Ashkenazy possessed a brilliant technique, he also conveyed great musical sensitivity and superb control of sonority. During those early years he was much admired by no less a figure than Richter. These were the days before he became consumed by Orchestral repertoire and conducting which became his second and predominant musical career.

@@meredith218461 Ashkenazy's first love was always the orchestra. He said in interviews that he preferred to go to orchestral concerts, except for recitals with Gilels or Richter, and always tried to get hold of orchestral scores, which he would then sight read at the piano. This is, perhaps, the origin of his incredible polyphonic sound.

I know this is something perhaps only a pianist who has performed with orchestra would be aware of, but this piece is odd for the fact the entire string section doesn’t play a single note in the first movement. Having them sit so close to the pianist would make me very conscious that they are sitting there staring at me! I have played many concertos, but not this one (yet). I wonder if it bothers anyone else who has performed it? Ashkenazy is a real professional and is totally engaged in what he’s doing, so he seems oblivious to it. I heard him around this time playing Rachmaninoff Third in Cleveland and went backstage to get his autograph. He was very kind and seemed humble and almost shy. Thanks for uploading this stunning performance.

Three flutes?
@danielgloverpiano7693
@danielgloverpiano7693 7 ай бұрын
Three flutes is very common in music from the 20th Century and often one of them doubles with piccolo. If you want something strange, Franck’s Les Djinns has four bassoons, but otherwise a normal orchestra. That was written in the middle of the 1880s.
@MrBohuslav
@MrBohuslav 7 ай бұрын
Of course, there are already four bassoons in many works by Berlioz, forty or fifty years earlier. But the point is that Bartok's score requests only two flutes.

@@MrBohuslav oh, I see. I have the score, but didn’t check. The unusual thing is that the strings are silent in the first movement. As a pianist, I would find it distracting to have them sitting over my shoulder for the whole movement, knowing they were watching me! I just checked the full score on imslp. Bartók 2 has three flutes with piccolo doubled.
