Book Description
Of his five piano concertos, Prokofiev's third is his best known, most frequently performed, and most widely recorded. A formidable pianist, Prokofiev wrote challenging piano works in a heavily ironic style. His distinctive, acerbic form of musical language is readily recognizable in this work, from its incisive opening to the ensuing motor rhythms, blending lyricism and caustic wit. This authoritative, inexpensive edition will be welcomed by pianists, students, and teachers.
