Prokofiev Sonata No. 2
on: February 21, 2008, 09:37:46 AM
Why do you think this particular Sonata is so underplayed compared to Nos. 3, 6, 7 and 8?

Is it? I see it played here at the conservatory rather often.

I don't think so. It's probably more played than 8.

That's the price you pay for being moderate in everything.  See, if I were you, my name would be Ilovepie.  But that's just me.

Recently it's become very popular. I know of 4 different people who were studying it this past year and Garrick Ohlsson has included it as part of his recital program for this year.
