Jean-Philippe Collard, a renowned pianist with a career spanning over five decades, presents a captivating collection of works by two Russian composers, Alexander Scriabin and Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. Released on January 28, 2022, under the label La Dolce Volta, this album offers a unique blend of classical piano concertos and solo pieces that showcase Collard's virtuosity and deep understanding of these compositions.
The album opens with Scriabin's Piano Concerto in F-Sharp Minor, a work that demonstrates the composer's unique harmonic language and emotional intensity. Collard's interpretation is both powerful and nuanced, bringing out the depth and complexity of Scriabin's music. The second concerto, in C-Sharp Minor, is equally compelling, with its lively rhythms and rich orchestration.
In addition to the concertos, the album features a selection of Scriabin's solo piano works, including études and a nocturne, all performed with exquisite sensitivity and technical brilliance. These pieces offer a glimpse into Scriabin's innovative approach to piano writing and his exploration of new harmonic territories.
Rimsky-Korsakov's Piano Concerto in C-Sharp Minor is the final work on the album, a piece that is less well-known but no less deserving of attention. Collard's performance is full of energy and passion, highlighting the concerto's lyrical melodies and rhythmic drive.
With a total duration of 1 hour and 2 minutes, this album is a testament to Jean-Philippe Collard's enduring artistry and his ability to bring new insights to these classic works. Whether you are a seasoned classical music enthusiast or a newcomer to the genre, this album is sure to impress and inspire.
