simply - this is a great introduction to Sergei Prokofiev's exhilerating and profound piano works at a bargin price on naxos.
Bernd Glemser plays with real technical mastery + passion and has a real grip of the dynamics but also subtleties of this great piano music that includes the solo piano transciption of Prokofiev's marvellous Romeo + Juliet score. a more than worthy cd to compete with Berman on chandos or Richter on DG + for less than £5. buy this is yr a fan of angular, sardonic yet searching piano music with one foot in the classical pantheon, yet one foot in the coded, bitter,ironic soviet era .
i particularly love Prokofiev's searching Sonatas played by Glemser on volumes 1 + 2 (personal favourites are his Sonata No.2, 3, 4 + 7). therefore Piano Works Vol.1 release is also strongly recommended.
