Sergei Prokofiev
Visions fugitives op. 22
プロコフィエフは、彼の『幻影』、つまり20のつかの間の夢のようなイメージを、一気に作曲したのではありません。彼は1918年に祖国を離れることを余儀なくされましたが、1915年から1917年にかけてのロシア革命の直前まで、グループごとに作曲しました。彼の日記から、その少なくとも一部は音楽以外の刺激によって生まれたものであることがわかります。いくつかの作品は、彼と親しい人物たちからインスピレーションを得たものです。また、残虐行為の脅威に満ちた政治情勢に対する彼の感情的な反応を伝えている作品もあります。例えば第19番は、彼自身の言葉によれば、「1917年2月にペトログラードで起こった出来事」、つまり革命の初期段階からインスピレーションを得たものです。
これらの作品は、技術的にそれほど難しいものではありません。レッスンでもよく使用されています。今回、作曲家の生前に生まれたすべての原典史料を参考にした、初版の原典版が発行されました。プロコフィエフの専門家であるサイモン・モリソンが、この素晴らしいピアノ曲集の誕生の背景となった伝記的情報について、序文で紹介しています。
作曲家について
Sergej Prokofjew
Together with Shostakovich, Prokofiev is the Soviet Union’s most important composer. He left behind a
wide-ranging oeuvre from the most modern to neo-classically simple works, from
propagandistic commissions to compositions that the CPSU rejected as being formalistic.
| 1891 | Prokofiev is born on 23 April in Sontsovka (Ukraine), the son of a farmer. |
| 1904–14 | He studies at the St. Petersburg Conservatory. |
| from 1908 | He is a member of the circle around Serge Diaghilev, who occupies himself intensively with contemporary music. |
| 1911–18 | Avantgarde compositions such as Sarcasms, the Piano Concertos nos. 1 and 2, “Visions fugitives”, “Scythian Suite” are dismissed as being futuristic. |
| 1916–17 | The “Symphonie Classique”, drawing on classical models, brings him international renown. |
| 1918 | Prokofiev leaves the Soviet Union and travels to the USA, where his opera “The Love for Three Oranges” is performed in Chicago, and then travels to Paris in 1922. He enjoys a close cooperation with Diaghilev and writes ballet compositions. |
| 1919–23 | He composes the opera “The Fiery Angel”, which receives its first performance posthumously in Venice in 1954. |
| 1923–25 | The composer continues to develop his avantgarde musical language, for instance in the 2nd Symphony. |
| 1927 | He enjoys a successful concert tour around the Soviet Union. |
| 1929 | “The Gambler” is premiered in Brussels. |
| 1936 | Prokofiev returns to his home country. He writes compositions in line with the cultural ideology of the Soviet Union. He turns towards a simpler music as early as the beginning of the 1930s. “Peter and the Wolf” is composed. |
| 1946 | “The Engagement in the Monastery” is performed in Prague and “War and Peace” in Leningrad. |
| 1948 | He is accused of formalism. |
| 1953 | Prokofiev
dies on 5 March in Moscow. |
