🇷🇺Sergei Sergeyevich Prokofiev ： Ten Pieces Prelude Op.12-7

Within its brief span, this prelude concentrates Prokofiev’s characteristic harmonic sharpness and the appeal of a hard-edged sonority. Overlapping chords and contrasts between registers shape the musical flow, while concise material advances through tension and release. Hearing the piece as one continuous, broad breath can bring its transitions into sharper relief. In performance, avoid sounding the chords forcefully; instead, carefully control the depth of the touch and the amount of pedal so that the resonance remains clear. Listening closely to the inner voices and expressing the shading and momentum beneath the surface sharpness will bring out the work’s individuality.
