Amazing performance of Nikolai Lugansky. Beautiful "secret" Prokofiev sonata. and what a tenderness in the middle of the 3rd and last movement. Thanks to Share this record.
Something so sweet and dark at the same time. Also very controlled, while I could feel an urge to accelerate or get more intense and it doesn't, which triggers me even more. This is really divine if I may say so.
I didn't like it for a long time. Then I heard Prokofiev's own recording of it, and I understood what he was trying to do. Now I love it even when played by somebody else.
While everything else he wrote might be more famous, I consider the 2nd movement the high water mark in Prokofiev's output, his genius never more crystalized than right here.
Prokofiev himself agrees that the second movement is something special! In his diary, he writes the following about the debut of the Fourth Sonata: “I had not predicted a great success for the Fourth Sonata, but I was quite wrong: the serious elements of the audience all immediately appreciated the second movement, while the others liked the finale.” Clearly, you can see which movement he values more :)
This version by Lugansky granted me a much better appreciation for this piece. I only knew the Richter version, which is great, but this feels more detailed and musical somehow.
This is very frustrating. I don't prefer his interpretation, but he plays his 1000x better than I play mine, so there's a lot I could learn from it. I wish Prokofiev had recorded the whole sonata. I *love* his recording of the 2nd movement. Oh well, well done Lugansky. Even when I disagree with you, you still win. 😅😛😆
that middle movement might be the single darkest movement Prokofiev ever wrote; that or the slow movement of the 2nd sonata (oh and the 1st mvt of the 1st violin sonata)
Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 2, one of the darkest pieces ever written and with topic matter concerning a friend's suicide, would like to have a word with you.
I wonder if there is any connection between the opening of op.26, no.2 and the opening of Prokofiev's Sonata no. 4? Does anyone know 🤔 👀? It's a bit of a stretch but not out the realm of possibility 🤔
A parte ,non poco lui si sa miglior interprete di rach, questo difficile, molto difficile brano interpretato da dio,senza un approfondito studio di rach farebbe molta fatica a uscire così,poi questa sonata nonostante a me non piaccia prokofi è bella e piena di effetti, ciò nonostante x me rimane sempre più bella poetica e difficile la seconda di rach prima versione.. auguri a tutti gli studiosi di piano dio..

Oh my goodness...what a beautiful sonata
I came here for the 3rd movement. It's so epic
Totally agree
That last C major chord with intruder minor 2nd intervals made my life complete
A man of fine taste, I see.
11/10 chord
The 3rd movement is just LEGEND. The melody is always spinning in my head🤣 Soooooo addictive!!!!!!!!!
오 찐이다
It is his signature sardonic and playful sound. 😛
I can’t stop listening to it, expessialy the dissonance
The second movement might be under rated.

Extremely! It's virtually a fugue with the amount of counterpoint in it. Obviously it's not a fugue but you know what I mean.
@@nyn78 you should listen to prokofievs own recording of it

2nd movement is so underrated...
Indeed.
my favorite
underrated masterpiece....
This piece has it all.
the third movement - fun to listen, everything but fun to perform
This version by Lugansky granted me a much better appreciation for this piece. I only knew the Richter version, which is great, but this feels more detailed and musical somehow.
There's an old recording of Prokofiev playing the 2nd movement himself here on TH-cam. I *highly* recommend it!
Brilliant performance - I am sure Prokofiev himself would have loved it!

Interesting sound effects in the 2nd movement! That last movement i'd struggle to play.
Superbe et très émouvant. Merci encore ❤
Surely the most difficult piece I had to study.... that tremendous 3rd movement!😢...but what a wonderful Sonata!

2nd mvt is definitely amazing

I doesn't feel dark at all, imo.

A Fine performance by Lugansky, his dexterity in the fiendish 3rd mvt is even more impressive than Richter's
Impressionante
Круто🎉🎉🎉

Amazing
Prokofiev studied at St. Petersburg Conservatory
When
One of his teachers was Rimsky-Korsakoff
Ok
Maravilloso...
11:45 tenerezza
love the way both themes from earlier in the movement get stacked on top of each other

What
The description is from AllMusic, made by Alexander Carpenter
The form just does not make a lot of sense.
