72 Preludes

Description

Mao Fujita's new recording: 72 PreludesThree cycles of Preludes by Frédéric Chopin and Alexander Scriabin, plus the world premiere recording of Akio Yashiro's "24 Preludes".Following his "consistently impressive" (Gramophone) traversal of the complete Mozart piano sonatas for Sony Classical — awarded an Opus Klassik Award — Japanese pianist Mao Fujita has recorded an equally ambitious project.In doing so, Mao Fujita unites the Europe where he now lives and the Japan where he was born and raised.Chopin's 24 Preludes, completed in 1839, were the first to treat the piano prelude as an independent work.In 1884, the Russian visionary Alexander Scriabin began working on his own series of 24 preludes, directly inspired by Chopin's.Akio Yashiro was born in Tokyo and studied with Olivier Messiaen in Paris, where they became close friends. His 24 preludes, which follow the same key cycle as those of Chopin and Scriabin, date from 1945 — before the composer, then aged 15, had traveled to Europe.The works incorporate a wide variety of moods and styles, the young composer exploring various harmonic and rhythmic devices with flair. Mao Fujita compares the content of his new recording to a refreshing yet hearty sushi meal: "If Chopin and Scriabin are the fish and rice, the foundation, Yashiro is the wasabi — equally vital, and with that special kick that creates something delicious."
