S. Prokofiev - Sergei Prokofiev: Piano Sonatas Nos. 4, 7 & 9 on CD

Description

With this volume, Alexander Melnikov has chosen to delve into three distinct periods of the composer's career, ranging from the dazzling though seldom-heard 'Sonata No. 4' to the magisterial 'No. 9'. In between those two, the 'Sonata No. 7' once again evokes the troubled atmosphere characteristic of the three so-called 'War Sonatas'.
