Composer(s): Balakirev. Performer: Danny Driver (piano). In a recital full of unusual repertoire – no sign here of Islamey, Balakirev’s most popular piano work – the closest point of contact between Balakirev and Chopin is the former’s Nocturne No. It quotes verbatim from the opening of Chopin’s Mazurka Op. 17 No. 2 (as demonstrated by their juxtaposition on Kevin Kenner’s fascinating new Chopin Resonances disc from Dux). Balakirev’s big and undeservedly neglected Sonata is more strikingly original, opening with a fugal treatment of a broad, folk-like tune.

Pianist Danny Driver has garnered overwhelming critical praise and a Gramophone award nomination for his previous discs for Hyperion. His authoritative and virtuosic performances of York Bowen and CPE Bach have placed him firmly in the one to watch category. For his latest disc, he turns to one of the giants of the Russian piano world. This disc looks beyond the ubiquitous Islamey to some of Balakirev s most important works which are curiously underrepresented on disc. Disc: 1. 1. Andantino (Piano Sonata in B flat minor).

Balakirev’s Piano Sonata is one of those inexplicably neglected works which remain obstinately on the fringe of the repertoire. With the exception of Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition, it is the only large-scale solo piano work produced by The Mighty Handful and possibly the only piano sonata that opens. Balakirev Piano Sonata. An appealing programme and a neglected sonata, ravishingly played. View record and artist details. Record and Artist Details. Composer or Director: Mily Alexeyevich Balakirev.
