Four Etudes
Op. 2
About Sergey Prokofiev's Four Etudes
The Four Etudes are early efforts by Prokofiev to etch out an individual style and to showcase his unique virtuosity, perhaps more so than the contemporaneous First Sonata, which owes more to the Romantic style of Rachmaninov or Scriabin. There are great technical challenges here - Evgeny Kissin declared that Liszt had never dreamed of such difficulties.
