Prokofiev as Pianist

Written By WTJU Radio

This coming Wednesday, Jan. 29, Analog Masters presents a little-known facet of a well-known composer. Serge Prokofiev was one of the most outstanding pianists of his era. But he made very few recordings.

At 9:00 am on Charlottesville Classical, host Tom Godell will sample several of Prokofiev's best recordings. He'll also be talking with Harlow Robinson, author of Sergei Prokofiev: A Biography.
