If you love 2mov of Ravel´s piano Concerto
on: October 09, 2004, 09:12:10 PM
For those who doesn´t understand Prokofiev yet and love the 2nd movement of Ravel´s piano Concerto, try listening to Prokofiev´s 2nd movement "Larghetto" of his 5th piano concerto. You´ll like it!
I think is kind of a hommage to Ravel. It is in G too, like ravel´s.

It's always recorded into one movement, sort of like the late Scriabin Sonatas. The Left Hand Concerto is beautiful.

When Practice Stagnates – Breaking the Performance Ceiling: Robotic Training for Pianists

“Practice makes perfect” is a common mantra for any pianist, but we all know it’s an oversimplification. While practice often leads to improvement, true perfection is elusive.
