🇷🇺Sergei Sergeyevich Prokofiev ： Visions Fugitives Op.22-14

The fourteenth piece from Prokofiev’s Visions Fugitives is a character piece marked by intensity and a sharp sense of tension. Within its brief span, musical gestures with hard-edged sonorities and strong accents appear in quick succession, moving forward with scarcely any opportunity to relax. Its highly condensed structure is especially compelling in the way shifts of dynamics and musical weight transform its expression. In performance, it is important not to strike every note with brute force, but to maintain crisp articulation and a clear rhythm while sustaining the tension throughout.
