About
However, to limit Nikolayeva’s reputation to these two composers would be doing her a great disservice. She had a vast repertoire and her recordings include concertos by Bartok, Medtner, Prokofiev Stravinsky and several Soviet composers - including her own concerto, as she was also a composer! Furthermore, she recorded the complete Beethoven sonatas and much other standard repertoire from the 19th century.
This CD presents two recording premieres – the first ever recording of the Tchaikovsky Concert Fantasy Op.56 and the first recording of the original version of Tchaikovsky’s 2nd Piano Concerto. At the time of its premiere, the 2nd piano concerto had been deemed too long and, until relatively recently, the work has always been performed in a drastically cut revision by the pianist Alexander Siloti. Here Nikolayeva reveals that not only was she an intellectual pianist but also a virtuoso who could ‘barnstorm’ with the best of them.
