Sergei Prokofiev (1891-1953)
Piano Sonata No. 4 in C minor, Op. 29 (1908-1917)
Nikolai Lugansky, 2014

[0:00] I. Allegro molto sostenuto
[6:16] II. Andante assai
[13:37] III. Allegro con brio, ma non leggiero

"The sonata starts in a mood of deep, sorrowful reflection, permeating throughout the main theme. The music is absent of external effects - atypical for the young Prokofiev. The andante is a rework from the youthful symphony in E minor. The finale - “like a dazzling ray of sun, like a mighty gust of wind” (Martynov) - bursts out of the restrained, lyrical, imaginative world of the previous movements. Life-affirming mood dominates, permeated with the pathos of creation and a premonition of the "birth of a new world." In music - written in the sunny key of C major - this is expressed in sweeping thematics and dazzling pianistic passages, which Prokofiev held back until the finale."

- Mariinsky program notes, 2010

I have always loved this sonata. You almost never hear it in concert, but it is a beautiful piece.

Дата первого исполнения - 17 апреля 1918. Был вот такой же серый день, первая весна после революции, и - неизвестно, что впереди. Петербуржцы сидели по своим квартирам и боялись выходить на улицу. И прозвучала вот эта настороженная, сумрачная музыка - бег теней в полутёмной огромной и холодной комнате (тут с английской аннотацией можно поспорить). Исполнение Н.Луганского - выше всех похвал.

This is one of the best recordings of this piece in my opinion, better than his studio recording too. It's too bad I can't find this and many similar with better lossless quality anywhere, I'd be happy to buy if I knew where
