about

Pianist Nikita Mndoyants devotes this recording to Prokofiev, whose music has accompanied him since his early days. Here he brings together the Fourth Sonata 'From Old Notebooks' and the Eighth, an integral part of the so-called 'War Sonatas', as well as an arrangement of the scherzo from the Fifth Symphony. Nikita Mndoyants thus gives us an insight into the composer's different facets, and a measure of the richness of a language that combines exceptional virtuosity, a sense of enchantment and biting irony.
In counterpoint, Nikita Mndoyants records a Nocturne for piano written by himself, continuing the Russian tradition of pianist-composers and following in the footsteps of Russia's 'enfant terrible'.

Le pianiste Nikita Mndoyants consacre cet enregistrement à Prokofiev, dont la musique l’accompagne depuis ses débuts. Il réunit ici la Quatrième Sonate “d’après de vieux cahiers” et la Huitième, partie intégrante des sonates dites “de guerre”, ainsi qu’un arrangement du scherzo de la Cinquième Symphonie. Nikita Mndoyants donne ainsi à apprécier les différentes facettes du compositeur, et à mesurer la richesse d’un langage où se mêlent virtuosité exceptionnelle, sens de la féérie et ironie mordante.
En contrepoint, Nikita Mndoyants enregistre un Nocturne pour piano de sa plume, prolongeant la tradition russe des pianistes-compositeurs et emboîtant le pas à l’“enfant terrible” de la Russie.
