Tchaikovsky 18 Morceaux, Op. 72 | Asiya Korepanova
Five years ago, I performed a recital at midnight on November 6 - the day of Tchaikovsky’s passing - in Izhevsk, my hometown, which is a mere 20 miles away from Tchaikovsky’s birthplace. It was a significant and heartfelt concert for me, and very unusual - how often one gets to play a midnight recital? The hall was full of young people, and for some of them, it was their very first classical concert. But there also were regular concert-goers and even some kids.
I wore jeans on stage and made an edgy hairdo, many things seemed anew that night, but the main hero of the recital - Tchaikovsky’s brilliant cycle of 18 pieces, , - felt even more refreshing, like a discovery.
This work is a one-piece organism, consisting of different parts-moods. It can be melancholic, striking, soothing, refreshing, mournful, inspiring, colorful, trembling, and at the end of the day, grandiose in its depiction of an enormous human soul. It is Tchaikovsky’s last solo piano work.
Today, I am celebrating Tchaikovsky’s 180-th Birthday with this performance.
