柴可夫斯基+1(鋼琴獨奏曲)第三集/普羅高菲夫:羅密歐與茱麗葉組曲(鋼琴版)
貝瑞.道格拉斯 鋼琴 For the third volume of his musical tribute to Russia, Barry Douglas has selected a range of love songs and dances by Tchaikovsky that span much of his composing life. From the early Romance, Op. 5 through to the two pieces from Op. 72, his last works for the piano, there is a uniform singing quality, each piece redolent with Tchaikovsky's gift for melody. Although many of these are relatively short pieces, they are certainly more than 'miniatures', conveying both breadth and depth of emotional substance. This volume's 'plus one' comes in the guise of Prokofiev and his virtuosic transcription of ten pieces from his best-known ballet, Romeo and Juliet. Vividly capturing the colour of scenes and characters with the relatively limited palette of the solo piano (compared to the full orchestra) is in itself an outstanding achievement, and Barry Douglas's fearless interpretation dazzles from start to finish.
