Saori Kuriyama Prokofiev Piano Sonatas in its entirety, 4th

This will be the final performance of Prokofiev's complete piano sonatas, which can be called his life history.
This time, we will perform the revised version of No. 5 and No. 9, the last sonata in the numbered series, which were featured in the first performance.
No. 5, which was composed during the Paris period, has been reworked over time to give a very different impression. The last movement, in particular, has undergone considerable reworking. Why did he insist on revising it, even though the doctor told him to limit the time for composing it?
Prokofiev's Ninth is a departure from the usual energetic image of Prokofiev. As he himself has stated, it is not a work to be applauded, but rather a highly introspective and transparent work. Some people may find it surprising that the music that emerged when he took off his mask and looked inside, which he had lived his whole life with a stoic and elbow-length personality, was of a kind of innocence.
What was Prokofiev's true face really like? We hope you will be able to witness the true face of Prokofiev.
We look forward to seeing many of you there!
