About Sergey Prokofiev's Pensées
The Pensées (or “Thoughts”), Op. 62, were composed just before Prokofiev left France for his home country of Russia after an 18-year stay abroad. They are part of a small handful of works Prokofiev composed for the piano during this period, the composer having devoted most of his time to large-scale works such as operas and ballets. True to their title, they are rich in meditative, contemplative passages, woven together with eerie, ruminating, and subdued material.
