Subcollection: PianoTwo pieces by Grieg played by the composer himself are a bonus.
Firma Melodiya presents recordings of piano compositions by Edvard Grieg.
Lyric Pieces is a genre which accompanied the Norwegian composer along nearly the entire creative path. Ten books composed within 1870-1900 are a sort of the composer’s creative diary which fixed his impressions, genre sketches and deep emotional experience. What we find here is dance pieces, landscapes of northern nature, fantastic images and lyrical reflection.
Four books of Grieg’s Lyric Pieces are performed by Alexander Goldenweiser. A brilliant pianist, professor of the Moscow Conservatory where he taught for over fifty years, editor of piano literature, he is rightfully considered one of the founders of the Russian piano school of the 20th century. A pupil of Alexander Siloti, who in his turn studied under Franz Liszt, and Sergey Taneyev, one of Tchaikovsky’s students, he was closely acquainted with Leo Tolstoy, Sergey Rachmaninoff, Alexander Scriabin and Nikolai Metner. Goldeweiser’s performance combined the achievements of Russian and European romantic pianism with novelty piano art of the 20th century. Goldeweiser’s style was characteristic for its filigree, lyrical spirituality and utmost loyalty to an author’s text.

Subcollection: PianoAnthology of Piano Music by Russian and Soviet Composers
Part 2 Disc 1: 1917-1991
Continuing their series, Melodiya presents Volume 5 of their Anthology of Piano Music by Russian and Soviet Composers.
Another release of the Anthology of Piano Music by Russian and Soviet Composers features works of the late 1950s and the first half of the 1970s by composers of ‘traditional’ school. Nevertheless, the listeners will find a lot of real surprises on this disc. It opens with a once famous Rondo by Dmitri Kobalevsky he composed for the First Tchaikovsky International Competition as an obligatory programme for the pianists in the second round. Alemdar Karamanov’s naïve and romantic Variations showcase his music from a peculiar angle while he is better known as an author of monumental biblical symphonies. The piano sonatas by two prominent representatives of the Leningrad composing school Boris Tishchenko and Boris Arapov are true gems of this release. They are complimented with compositions by the authors from the former Soviet republics such as Mikhail Skorik (Ukraine) and Yuri Nikolayev (Uzbekistan). |

Subcollection: PianoGlinka created piano pieces all his life. Be it variations on his own or other composers’ themes, or tiny yet elegant miniatures in various dance genres, they all amaze us with their extraordinary finesse and skillfullness requiring the performer’s skills to match. The creative work of pianist Valeri Konstantinovich Kamyshov invariably won his listeners. “I have always admired Valeri Kamyshov for his love for art and noble sense of beauty. He has plenty of musical ideas and unique virtuosity,” said Yakov Flier whose class the pianist graduated from the Moscow Conservatory (1966) and whose post-graduate student he was until 1968. Valeri Kamyshov’s career was distinguished with high awards such as the second prize of All- Union Competition in 1961, the fifth prize of the Tchaikovsky Competition in 1962, and the second prize of the Queen Elisabeth Competition in Brussels in 1968. |

Subcollection: PianoMelodiya presents piano works by Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel recorded by the authors.
These unique phonographic documents date back to the 1910s-1920s, when music recording was at its dawn. Following the singers whose voices were so well reproduced by the phonograph, methods of piano music recording were invented. Among the first pianists who put their own interpretations on record were such composers as Rachmaninoff, Scriabin, Prokofiev, Stravinsky, Debussy and Ravel.

Subcollection: Piano Alexander Jocheles won a prize at the Second Frederic Chopin Pianists’ Competition in Warsaw in 1932. However his fame as a pianist was ensured by the Second Prize won him in the First All-Union Competition for Musicians-Performers.
Alexander Jocheles had a preference for a broad repertoire which included numerous compositions that were rarely heard in performance by Soviet pianists of his time: from his own editions of Jean Philippe Rameau’s concertos and the rarely performed one-movement Concerto in D major by Ludwig van Beethoven to Claude Debussy’s Fantasy, Arthur Honegger’s Concertino and Francis Poulenc’s “Rhapsody Negre” - compositions which he presented to his country’s public for the first time.
Jocheles is well-known as having made a number of his own transcriptions - for instance, in 1947 he performed Beethoven’s “Hammerklavier” Sonata N. 29 (opus 106) in transcription for piano and orchestra. In Jocheles’ concerts and recitals his transcriptions of Bach’s, Handel’s and Gluck’s music took up halves of concerts. Alexander Lvovich pertained to the select few pianists who had preserved and developed the tradition of transcriptions. Of special interest is his work on completion and reconstruction of Schubert’s piano sketches.
From 1952 Alexander Lvovich was a professor of the Gnesins’ State Music pedagogical institute.
At the Gnesins’ Institute Jocheles was the initiator of the lengthy cycle of concerts “The History of the Piano Sonata for 300 Years.”
Alexander Jocheles was an outstanding piano pedagogue. His ability to analyze musical compositions, remarkable ingenuity in searching different variants of fingerings, a wealth of knowledge of music history and culture and phenomenal memory made him into a veritably legendary figure.
The “Melody” record company had released three times A. Jocheles’ pedagogical commentaries to the performance of the following works: J.S. Bach’s “Capriccio on the Departure of his Beloved Brother,” Ludwig van Beethoven’s Piano Sonata N. 17, opus 31, N. 2 and Johannes Brahms’ Variations on a Theme by Schumann, which enjoyed popularity among students, pedagogues and fans of the art of piano playing. |
