These pieces with their ‘revolutionary’ harmony took the piano into the 20th century. They are a challenge to the interpreter, as they have to master both the spiritual and technical aspects of this composer’s art. Pascal Amoyel more than rises to the challenge. He studied at the Paris Conservatoire and is both a pianist and composer. “Amoyel makes the 3 minutes of this first Poème blissful to listen to - a sweet polyphony of floating lines, a pure rubato. In the title of Poème languide, the manner is explicit, but there are also heavily insistent, iteratively
chordal items, such as Poème satanique. Vers la flamme memorably combines the approaches. Poème fantasque self-destructs in 29 seconds.” Sunday Times “Amoyel's first-rate pianism puts clarity, proportion, and controlled freedom above all else and keeps the music's volatile undercurrents alive and active” Classics Today “Pascal Amoyel admits he was driven close to neurosis when preparing his Scriabin recording and found it difficult to re-emerge into the world of other composers. Aphoristic or endlessly protracted, seemingly lost in a harmonic limbo or fiercely to the point, such music is indeed challenging to both listener and performer.
For Amoyel the tirelessly extended Poème-nocturne is 'phantasmagorical, ill-defined and confused' (terms he intends as the greatest compliment) and his playing on what he describes as a 'rather sombre-sounding Steinway' amply conveys his enthusiasm.
He is acutely sensitive to the dark mystery at the heart of the Op 41 Poème, its final section a decadent memory of Chopin's Op 10 No 6 Etude, and responds with refinement as well as energy to the Poème tragique with its demands of festivamente, fastoso, irato and fiero. In the Poème satanique (music indelibly associated with Sofronitsky) light is stalked by darkness in a menacing game of tag, while the enchanting Op 38 Valse is an all- Russian extension of the world of Liszt's Valsesoubliées. The Op 69 No 2 Poème is a notably grotesque danse macabre and in the final Vers laflamme Amoyel takes us on a mesmeric journey from threatening shadows to searing brilliance.
Yet even here he resists virtuoso temptations, making it odd that he should be described in France as one of Cziffra's 'spiritual heirs'. Confidentiality and insinuation are his hallmarks rather than wildness or flamboyance. Calliope's sound, like Amoyel's instrument, is subdued but it hardly detracts from an experience that is stifling or exhilarating, according to taste.” Gramophone Classical Music Guide, 2010 | | | This item is currently out of stock at the UK distributor.
