Oda Voltersvik (piano)About
Oda Voltersvik’s fascinating recital takes the listener on a journey from the beginning of the century opening with Scriabin’s early Fantasy which looks forward to his later style, while still glancing back to the romantic era. Likewise, Prokofiev’s Second Sonata of 1912 stands on the cusp of his exposure to the latest modern trends in music and of course the Russian Revolution and First World War were looming. Shostakovich’s Second Sonata is a masterpiece written during the height of World War 2. His struggle to create under the threat of Stalin’s repression is evident in this powerful and deeply personal work. Gubaidulina had come under criticism from the Soviet regime in the early 1960s for writing ‘irresponsible’ music. Shostakovich supported her during this period. Her Chaconne harks back the baroque style.
