Τρίτος επιφανής Ρώσος ύστερο-ρομαντικός, μετά τους Scriabin, Rachmaninoff, ο Nikolai Medtner. Το μεγαλύτερο μέρος της μουσικής του έχει ως βάση το πιάνο – όργανο του οποίου ήταν ο ίδιος βιρτουόζος.
Ακούμε το τέταρτο μέρος, Finale, Allegro Risoluto της Σονάτας του σε Φα ελάσσονα, op. 5. Από τον Geoffrey Tozer.

✻

Our third illustrious Russian late-romantic, after Scriabin, Rachmaninoff, is Nikolai Medtner.
Most of his music is based on the piano – an instrument of which he was himself a virtuoso.
We hear the fourth part, Finale, Allegro Risoluto of his Sonata in Fa minor, op. 5.
Performed by Geoffrey Tozer.
