Italian Polka, Sergei Rachmaninoff-Vyacheslav Gryaznov transcription
Italian Polka, Sergei Rachmaninoff-Vyacheslav Gryaznov transcription
Vyacheslav Gryaznov, pianist
Live performance
Wissembourg Festival 2016
Encore following Rachmaninov’s Second Concerto with Mulhouse Symphony Orchestra, Patrick Davin, conductor
From the review by professor
of the Moscow State Conservatoire
A. Merkulov
“…This arrangement written by Vyacheslav Gryaznov is a transcription of Rachmaninov’s “Italian polka”. A mature approach and the richness of the content can be evidently seen in it. You will find here both joy and playfulness on the one hand and bitter and sad notes – hidden in the back-ground and therefor being so pleasant to the ear – on the other, and, of course, plenty of thrilling dance music flowing without restraint but not losing the charm of former saloons. This concert arrangement follows stylistically the manner of Rachmaninov’s musical transcriptions, especially his famous arrangements of Kreisler’s waltzes “Torments of Love” and “Joy of Love”. I am sure that Gryaznov’s concert transcriptions have all grounds to achieve real success in the future, moreover this genre-writing is developing very quickly nowadays. Gryaznov has managed to fulfill ’s precept given in connection with young Rachmaninov’s initial experiences of transcribing music: “It is necessary to have a desire for creation, courage, energy and brilliance, and be free from the slave submission to the authority of composers...“
