Evgeny Kissin evgeny kissin biography and Chopin CD by the Russian pianist evgeny kissin. Biography of the pianist and Chopin CD 24 Preludes, Sonata no 2 op. http://www.cosmopolis.ch/english/cosmo7/kissin.htm
Extractions: As Harris Goldsmith explains in the CDs booklet, the Twenty-Four Preludes op. 28 were composed between 1836 and 1839, the B-Flat Minor Sonata op. 35 in 1839 and the A-Flat Polonaise op. 53 in 1842. The three works represent Chopin's genius at its zenith. The Preludes pay tribute to Johann Sebastian Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier . Chopin was an admirer of the German composer and deeply immersed in the music of Bach when he composed the Preludes. He considered Bach "the best school; no one will ever create a better... Without Bach, you cannot have freedom in your fingers nor a clear or beautiful tone." Chopin's preludes are "rather a collection of tone poems" than preludes, wrote the noted English musicologist Arthur Hedley. They were written as a cycle but the individual components are hugely diverse and bear no motivic connections to one another. The Sonata no. 2 op. 35 has a first dramatic movement, a demonic scherzo, the famous "funeral march" and a presto finale. Goldsmith calls the melodic, harmonic and motivic edifice "almost Beethovenian in their stringent mastery". Chopin's mazurkas and polonaises are the expression of his "fierce pride and nationalism". Although he had a French father and lived in Paris from 1831, he never stopped loving his native Poland. The Polonaise op. 53 is one of the most popular denizens in all classical music. Technical brilliance is needed to perform it.

Extractions: Evgeny Kissin wurde 1971 in Moskau geboren. Seine Mutter war Pianistin, sein Vater ein Ingenieur, der seine Karriere aufgab und mit der Familie 1992 in den Westen ging. Im Alter von zwei Jahren (!) begann Evgeny nach dem Gehör zu spielen. Mit sechs wurde er in die Moskauer Gnessin School of Music für begabte Kinder aufgenommen, wo er mit Anna Pavlovna Kantor zu studieren begann (die übrigens heute mit Kissin, seinen Eltern und seiner älteren Schwester zusammenlebt). Erstmals erregte Kissin 1984 internationale Aufmerksamkeit, als er im Alter von zwölf Jahren zwei Klavierkonzerte von Chopin in der Grossen Halle des Moskauer Konservatoriums zusammen mit der Moskauer Staatsphilharmonie unter der Leitung von Dmitiri Kitayenko aufführte. Drei Jahre später gab Kissin beim Berliner Festival sein Debüt im Westen. Seine Darbietung von Tschaikowskys erstem Klavierkonzert, zusammen mit den Berliner Philharmonikern unter der Leitung von Herbert von Karajan, war ein Triumph. Die anschliessende Europatournee mit den Moskauer Virtuosen unter der Leitung von Vladimir Spivakov war ausverkauft. 1990 folgte Kissins Debüt in den USA, wo er zwei Klavierkonzerte von Chopin in den New Yorker Philharmonikern unter der Leitung von Zubin Metha spielte. Zehn Tage später eröffnete er die hunderste Saison der Carnegie Hall mit seinem Eröffnungsrezital.

Extractions: Als er erstmals Klavier spielte, war er zwei. Heute ist er 30 und einer der weltweit gefragtesten Pianisten. Aber noch immer hat er etwas vom "Wunderkind". Das Wunderkind-Schema der ersten Jahre Die ersten Karrierestationen von Evgeny Kissin entsprechen dem "Wunderkind-Schema". Mit zwei erstes Klavierspiel, mit sechs auf der Begabten-Schule, mit zehn der erste öffentliche Auftritt, mit elf erster Klavierabend in Moskau, als 13-Jähriger der große Auftritt mit den zwei Chopin-Konzerten und der Moskauer Philharmonie. 1987 luden ihn die Berliner Festspiele ein, da war er ganze 16. Und ganz groß raus kam er 1988 bei Karajans letztem Silvesterkonzert in der Berliner Philharmonie. 1990 durfte er die Saison der New Yorker Carnegie Hall mit einem Solo-Abend eröffnen. Seit einigen Jahren ist er regelmäßiger Stargast der Londoner "Proms", einer kultigen Konzertreihe mit internationalen Fernsehübertragungen.
