🇷🇺Sergei Sergeyevich Prokofiev ： Visions Fugitives Op.22-16

This character piece condenses subdued emotion and sharp tension into a brief span of time. Within sonorities that do not rely on a clear sense of tonality, fragments of melody and shifting chords create a quiet unease, while subtle inner contrasts emerge within its concise design. Expression depends not only on changes in volume but also on the weight given to each note and the treatment of silence, so it is important not to hurry and to listen carefully to the resonance. Focusing on the tension and release of the chords and on the passing of lines between voices brings out the work’s delicate shades of expression.
