Показать описание
The lightness and delicacy of Anna Vinnitskaya’s performance of Tchaikovsky’s April: Snowdrop beautifully echoes the falling of the snowdrops. The Russian pianist played the piece as an encore at her concert in December 2019 at the Kulturpalast Dresden.

Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) composed April: Snowdrop as part of The Seasons Op. 37b, a twelve-piece solo piano cycle, in 1875 and 1876. While working on his iconic ballet Swan Lake, Tchaikovsky was commissioned by literary editor Nikolay Bernard to compose twelve short piano pieces representing the twelve months of the year – to be released in monthly installments in Bernard’s journal Nuvellist.

Each piece representing a month was published with a complementary poem chosen by Nikolay Bernard. The piece for the month of April, entitled April: Snowdrop, is accompanied by the following epigraph by the Russian poet Apollon Maykov:

“The blue, pure snowdrop-flower,
and near it the last snowdrops.
The last tears over past griefs,
and first dreams of another happiness.”

Anna Vinnitskaya has won numerous prizes at prestigious piano competitions. In 2019, she made her debut with the Berliner Philharmoniker with the 2nd Piano Concerto by Sergei Prokofiev. She also performed with the Berlin Philharmonic under the baton of Kirill Petrenko at the Salzburg Festival in 2021. Vinnitskaya is a professor of piano at the Hamburg University of Music and Theatre (HfMT).

Es precioso. No soy melómano ni me pasa siempre, pero en esta ocasión llegué a conectar con la música desde el principio. Cerré mis ojos, dejé el celular en la mesa... pasado un rato volví a ver la pantalla; cuando vi el gesto de Anna la comprendí por completo. Normalmente la hubiera visto exagerada o hasta fingida. Supe que estaba siendo de lo más natural, incluso parte del público hizo algo similar.

Gracias por compartir, bendiciones.
