About

In his first album with Mirare, the pianist Lukas Geniušas offers us a recital featuring two early masterpieces of Prokofiev coupled with the only sonata the composer penned in Western Europe.

Even though the earlier works are four decades distant from the latter, a steady feature remains: Prokofiev’s feelings for his beloved Russia.

April 209

There is an abundance of fairy-tale characterisation in this first instalment of a promised complete survey of Prokofiev’s sonatas…And story-telling fantasy, conveyed with a seemingly infinite variety of touch, teams up with youthful bravado, fire and mercurial temperament in Genuišas’s superior accounts of all three works… Genuišas is certainly a bold and immensely idiomatic entrant into the already highly competitive arena of recorded Prokofiev cycles.
