Cinque stelle per l'album dedicato a Liszt di Nelson Freire
Sul numero di Musica di questo mese viene raccontato l’album “Harmonies du soir” di Nelson Freire. “Nelson Freire rievoca un pianismo d’altri tempi, incentrato sulla nobiltà di espressione e su un serio lavoro di scavo interpretativo. Un virtuoso, senza dubbio, ma di gran classe, in Rachmaninov come in Liszt, del quale oggi è un interprete di riferimento. In quest’antologia viene esplorato il lato notturno e sognante della musica lisztiana. Si resta immediatamente colpiti dalla profondità del suono del pianista brasiliano: un suono corposo, espressivo, scuro. Il virtuosismo e la magnificenza sonora, in Freire, si accompagnano a una cantabilità di grande pregio. Come rivela, sempre nella Ballata, la ripresa del tema lirico poco prima della conclusione, che possiede la pienezza e l’eleganza di un violoncello. Avviene lo stesso con i bassi dell’enigmatica Rapsodia ungherese n. 3, tutta percorsa da elementi tzigani e suonata con il fare sornione di una vecchia volpe della tastiera” Luca Segalla
