7:01 - II. Allegro vivace e leggero
9:20 - III. Adagio mesto
14:23 - IV. Fuga. Allegro con spirito

[@fazergazer]

The Adagio movement is one of the hidden challenges in the repertoire. The voicing and expression here is legendary! And the Fuga! Each voice is so clear and eloquent!❤

Kenny Broberg presents here the top of pianistic art. the route runs at the limit of performance along the way. Gratulations! Thank you for sharing this splendid experience.

[@markusenzenhofer3197]

What an incredible piece, played at highest level. The 3rd movement is pure magic. I can hear all melody lines and the different interacting themes. Congratulations

I played this Sonata for my master’s recital. Amazing work ….extremely difficult.

[@SCRIABINIST]

Learning this Sonata right now, and it is indeed difficult, especially that Fugue finale.

[@anascarone7549]

@@SCRIABINIST yes! It is very difficult, but you will be amazed as what your mind can do! Best of luck!

Quelle originalité , ce scherzo !!

[@mikec2250]

Curiously, it was Van Cliburn's version of this that turned me on to this music.

[@mumps59]

Same here! Seems to me the Prokofiev 6th was on the flip side of that album. But yeah, a very romantic interpretation (as I suppose one would expect from Cliburn).

[@789armstrong]

Stunning and comparable to Horowitz.
