Paralellinterpretation Sergei Prokofiev Pianosonatas 1,7,8 Steinway-Bechstein
on: January 14, 2018, 10:16:43 AM
This is a little digital interpretation experiment inspired a bit by historical informed Performance to play music with "period" instruments. For Prokofiev (1891-1953) a Steinway buildt in 1951 seem to be still a "period-instrument" reflecting the Soundideal of the time when Prokoviev especially his late sonatas found their Audience. On the other hand a Bechstein in the 21th century meanwhile build in a long and venerable tradition of German Pianomanufacturing is still in so many Aspects developed that the Guys from Bechstein assurd me a Bechstein today is in many aspects something very different than what the Grandpianos have been 70 or 100 Years ago. Having excellent Samplesets of both (Steinway 1951 = Synthogy) (Bechstein D 282 = Bechstein-digital.com) inspired me therefor to try my little comparison experiment. So You will hear the same pieces in the following posts always in two different version. I hope you like both.
Let us start with the small and earrly very lateromantic first Sonata in one mvement:
