Volodos!

Tentang lokasi ini

Arcadi Volodos is celebrated as a "poet at the piano", with critics particularly praising his ability to "sing at the piano" and his magical soft tones, especially in the works of Schubert and Chopin. How would the development of piano music have proceeded without these two composers? Unthinkable! Both created great works full of melancholy with their small forms. Schubert, on the other hand, discovered the infinity of melodic arcs. In his late piano sonatas, he created works full of "heavenly" lengths. Thanks to his eccentric chromaticism, Chopin became a pioneer of modern harmony. And Schubert throws us into a wonderful rollercoaster of emotions with his sudden turns between major and minor. Both became celebrated stars of the musical salons - one in Vienna, the other in Paris - and both died far too young. In his mazurkas, Chopin transforms the rhythms of his Polish homeland into highly sensitive character studies. The spectrum ranges from the narrative op. 33 to the simple op. 41 and the wistful late work op. 63. The Prélude op. 45 almost seems like an improvisational masterpiece full of harmonic boldness. Schubert completed his last piano sonata (D 960) two months before his death. It is a work of enormous dimensions of form and dizzying depths of expression. When listening to it, it is difficult to detach oneself from the image that we are witnessing a message from the afterlife.
