Mikhail Voskresensky: Mendelssohn - Piano concerto no. 2 op 40 - II. Adagio
MENDELSSOHN, Felix
Concerto for piano and orchestra no. 2 in D minor op. 40 (orchestra part reduced for piano)
II. Adagio - Molto sostenuto
Mikhail Voskresensky, guest professor
Katharina Treutler, student
Denis Lossev, accompanying pianist
In general, the second movement has been very well performed but it is a "lamento", it is necessary to sing all as if the right hand is a great singer, as Maria Callas. Moreover, the student should not be afraid in some passages and she must give to the melody more freedom, rubato and more improvised character.
Then, Prof. Voskresensky makes specific indications relating to dynamics, contrasts and sound, character, different orchestral instruments, or agogic, among others.
