New England Conservatory pianist Yi Ding performs Prokofiev: Sonata for Piano no 4 in C minor, Op. 29. Recorded live in Jordan Hall, January 28, 2016.

Of 20th-century composers of concert music, Sergei Prokofiev (1891-1953) left pianists with one of the more substantial bodies of work in traditional showcase formats: five piano concertos and nine piano sonatas, along with suites and other short-form works for solo piano.

In two Jordan Hall concerts, January 28 and February 1,  2016, NEC piano students celebrated Prokofiev's 125th anniversary with performances of all nine sonatas along with other solo piano works.

[Piano] Mozart Sonate n°14 K.457 2ème mouvement

"One of the many fascinating aspects of this work is that, for all the depth and gravity of its great message, it is full of the vitality, passion and ardour of the young man Brahms was when he wrote it. And what a difficult balance it is to reach in interpretation. It would be hard to mention a favourite moment, because the incredible emotional, dramatic power of the piece keeps us on the edge of our seats with all our senses involved from the very beginning. I feel so deeply shaken by the orchestral exposition that I often find it difficult to start the first solo".
