Моцарт, Пьесы для двух фортепиано - рецензии

ВОЛЬФГАНГ АМАДЕЙ МОЦАРТ (1756-1791) - ПЬЕСЫ ДЛЯ ДВУХ ФОРТЕПИАНО

АЛЕКСЕЙ ЛЮБИМОВ & ЮРИЙ МАРТЫНОВ

The stylistic richness of Mozart`s Sonata in D major for two pianos is such that it was only right to build around this a programme composed of original pieces, transcriptions, and reconstructed works.

Above all, this disc offers a chance to marvel at Mozart's formidable diversity of styles as we listen to the dialogue between two outstanding musicians and between the unique sonorities of the two original Viennese period instruments selected for this recording.

BBC MUSIC MAGAZINE, Bayan Northcott, 10 April 2013

The playing from Alexei Lubimov and Yury Martynov is lively and elegant.

ALL MUSIC, James Manheim, 2012

The work has never sounded as orchestral as it does here.The piano quartet arrangement is really brilliantly chosen for this program, with the accompanying piano, which switches off between the two, creating a variety of very string-like sounds.…by all means listen.

The Observer, Nicolas Kenyon, 9 December 2012

Having recently heard Alexei Lubimov excelling in John Cage, it was fascinating to hear the Russian pianist bringing the same clarity and penetration to Mozart. He has recorded the composer before with compatriot Yury Martynov, but this new collection has an unbeatable elan and drive. Some may find the glorious Sonata in D for two pianos too driven, but the pair capture the exuberance of the Larghetto and Allegro in Robert Levin`s splendid completion, and the rarity here is an arrangement for two pianos of the lovely Piano Quartet in E flat by Johann Pratsch, adding tasteful embellishments and flourishes.
