Prokofiev Piano Sonata No. 4 in c minor, Op. 29 (Lugansky)

[@Runaziel820]

I came here for the 3rd movement. It's so epic

[@galaxa]

Totally agree

[@admortor]

Oh my goodness...what a beautiful sonata

[@christianverlinden4232]

Amazing performance of Nikolai Lugansky. Beautiful "secret" Prokofiev sonata. and what a tenderness in the middle of the 3rd and last movement. Thanks to Share this record.

[@galaxa]

The 3rd movement is just LEGEND. The melody is always spinning in my head🤣 Soooooo addictive!!!!!!!!!

It is his signature sardonic and playful sound. 😛

[@KaikhosruShapurjiMedtner]

I can’t stop listening to it, expessialy the dissonance

[@miriliritralirali6404]

The second movement might be under rated.

[@nyn78]

Something so sweet and dark at the same time. Also very controlled, while I could feel an urge to accelerate or get more intense and it doesn't, which triggers me even more. This is really divine if I may say so.

[@Abernathythedull]

I didn't like it for a long time. Then I heard Prokofiev's own recording of it, and I understood what he was trying to do. Now I love it even when played by somebody else.

[@XavierMacX]

Extremely! It's virtually a fugue with the amount of counterpoint in it. Obviously it's not a fugue but you know what I mean.

[@beshepman7963]

​@@nyn78 you should listen to prokofievs own recording of it

[@miguelfontesmeira]

That last C major chord with intruder minor 2nd intervals made my life complete

[@Mr._Du]

A man of fine taste, I see. 11/10 chord

[@user-zd9zi1dz7b]

2nd movement is so underrated...

[@mirieltorres]

Indeed.

[@Whaijorhujishkomunyk]

my favorite

[@marcusanthonyPOV]

While everything else he wrote might be more famous, I consider the 2nd movement the high water mark in Prokofiev's output, his genius never more crystalized than right here.

[@supasayajinsongoku4464]

Kinda random but what piece have you been recently addicted to - you couldent stop listening over and over

[@willyj3321]

Prokofiev himself agrees that the second movement is something special! In his diary, he writes the following about the debut of the Fourth Sonata: “I had not predicted a great success for the Fourth Sonata, but I was quite wrong: the serious elements of the audience all immediately appreciated the second movement, while the others liked the finale.” Clearly, you can see which movement he values more :)

[@rbmfavourites7122]

Brilliant performance - I am sure Prokofiev himself would have loved it!

[@zeckul]

This version by Lugansky granted me a much better appreciation for this piece. I only knew the Richter version, which is great, but this feels more detailed and musical somehow.

[@BrassicaRappa]

There's an old recording of Prokofiev playing the 2nd movement himself here on KZbin. I *highly* recommend it!

[@tatsuhelma]

underrated masterpiece....

[@nyn78]

This piece has it all.

[@jackkoh6229]

the third movement - fun to listen, everything but fun to perform

[@piano_man7416]

Interesting sound effects in the 2nd movement! That last movement i'd struggle to play.

Surely the most difficult piece I had to study.... that tremendous 3rd movement!😢...but what a wonderful Sonata!

[@valerieheinderyckx4506]

Superbe et très émouvant. Merci encore ❤

[@elrichardo1337]

that middle movement might be the single darkest movement Prokofiev ever wrote; that or the slow movement of the 2nd sonata (oh and the 1st mvt of the 1st violin sonata)

[@GUILLOM]

I doesn't feel dark at all, imo.

Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 2, one of the darkest pieces ever written and with topic matter concerning a friend's suicide, would like to have a word with you.

[@simonkawasaki4229]

Great chords. Juicy.

[@user-ic2yk8ky8g]

2nd mvt is definitely amazing

[@BrassicaRappa]

This is very frustrating. I don't prefer his interpretation, but he plays his 1000x better than I play mine, so there's a lot I could learn from it. I wish Prokofiev had recorded the whole sonata. I *love* his recording of the 2nd movement. Oh well, well done Lugansky. Even when I disagree with you, you still win. 😅😛😆

[@meredith218461]

A Fine performance by Lugansky, his dexterity in the fiendish 3rd mvt is even more impressive than Richter's

[@PianoBangBang]

I wonder if there is any connection between the opening of op.26, no.2 and the opening of Prokofiev's Sonata no. 4? Does anyone know 🤔 👀? It's a bit of a stretch but not out the realm of possibility 🤔

[@josephmurrow7828]

Prokofiev studied at St. Petersburg Conservatory

A parte ,non poco lui si sa miglior interprete di rach, questo difficile, molto difficile brano interpretato da dio,senza un approfondito studio di rach farebbe molta fatica a uscire così,poi questa sonata nonostante a me non piaccia prokofi è bella e piena di effetti, ciò nonostante x me rimane sempre più bella poetica e difficile la seconda di rach prima versione.. auguri a tutti gli studiosi di piano dio..
