Chopin (1810-1849)

Description:

Aimi Kobayashi's second Warner Classics exclusive world contract is Chopin: 24 Preludes! Chopin's "24 Preludes" is known as a collection of pieces that reveal the personality of the performers because of the great variety of pieces. After the first piece with its beautiful, flowing arpeggios, comes the second piece colored with mysterious chords, including dissonant ones, and the third piece, which evokes a murmuring stream, followed by a series of highly varied pieces that make full use of all 12 tones. Aimi Kobayashi fully conveyed the rich expressive power of this collection of pieces, and her performance of each piece reflected the character of each piece in what could be described as a straightforward manner. Just by listening to the melody of the inner voice hidden in the simple No. 1, you will realize that this is no ordinary performance. As you listen to the music, you will be comforted by Chopin's lack of melancholy. However, as we reach the halfway point in the collection, when the music starts to use the many changes of key that Chopin excelled at from No. 9 onward, you can clearly hear the depth of expression. This is the true expression of Kobayashi singing along with Chopin. In No. 16, he shows a fierce expression as if he is going to throw everything away, which is a wonderful change from the calmness of the famous No. 15 "Raindrops". The intensity of the performance is breathtaking, and it continues all the way through to No. 24.The two preludes that accompany it are also superbly rendered, and the free expression in the Fantasy Polonaise and the final Fantasy Improvisation make this a truly dramatic piece.
