Glazunov: Music for Piano 4-hands and 2 Pianos

This new recording presents works for piano 4-hands and for 2 pianos, both original works and arrangements of orchestral works (such as his famous tone poem Stenka Razin). Glazunov’s fame in orchestral instrumentation did apply to the piano as well: he perfectly knew how to obtain an almost infinite palette of timbral and dynamic shades on the piano.

Composer: Alexander Glazunov
Artists: Duo Datteri Lencioni

A precocious Alexander Kostantinovich Glazunov at 16 took the Russian concert scene by storm. The teenage composer had plentiful musical ideas, a full mastery of form and enviable skill in orchestration, certainly influenced by his teacher, Rimsky-Korsakov. However, unlike his predecessors, the “Mighty Handful”, Glazunov lived through the political unrest that ultimately led to the Russian revolution and to communism. His directorship of the St Petersburg Conservatoire straddled Czarism and the first years of communist rule, yet ultimately his Russian musical ideal did not correspond to that of Soviet music (nor did his ideal of Russian life correspond to Soviet life). He consequently he fled the USSR, finding refuge in Western Europe, and Glazunov can now be counted among those unjustly neglected artists whose national pre-eminence was unseated by exile. the sobriety of the piano version can highlight musical details that might go unnoticed in the lush orchestral treatment.

The Duo Fabrizio Datteri and Nadia Lencioni attended a master class held by Bruno Canino and summer courses held by Aquiles delle Vigne at the Mozarteum of Salzburg, where they were also invited to play in the Wiener Saal. In 2002 they graduated at the Accademia Pianistica Internazionale Incontri col Maestro di Imola with the special award “Master”.
