NIKITA MAGALOFF piano

Born in St. Petersburg in 1912, he began his studies in Finland (where he had taken refuge with his family after the 1917 revolution) under the guidance of Alexander Siloti, a pupil of Liszt and cousin and teacher of Rachmaninoff. He later moved to Paris, studied with Isidor Philipp, graduating at the age of 17 with a Premier Grand Prix. On this occasion, Maurice Ravel said of him: «A great, truly extraordinary musician has been born». He achieved his first international successes with violinist Joseph Szigeti and, after the interruption of the war years, was one of the first artists to play in Paris and then, in 1947, to give concerts in the United States. Numerous significant events marked his career, including the first performance of Prokofiev's «Seventh Sonata», the performance of Stravinsky's «Capriccio» under the composer's direction, tours in Europe, the USA, Japan, and Israel, frequent and regular presence on the juries of the most prestigious international competitions (Leeds, Warsaw, Brussels, Lucerne), attentive as he was to the emergence of new talents among the younger generations. He has recorded music by Liszt, Tchaikovsky, Weber, Stravinsky, Brahms, Granados, and, most recently, for Philips, the complete works of Chopin, an author of whom Nikita Magaloff is among the unsurpassed interpreters, a work he also presented, in cycles of five recitals, in all the most important European cities.

 

Franz Schubert (1797-1828) - Sonata in B-flat major D. 960. 

The Sonata in B-flat D. 960 is the last and undoubtedly the most important of Schubert's sonatas. From the surviving manuscript, we can precisely determine the date the sonata was completed: September 26, 1828. Less than two months later, on September 19, Schubert would conclude his brief earthly existence. He intended to dedicate these last creations to the celebrated virtuoso J.N. Hummel, but by the time the Sonatas finally saw the light ten years later, Hummel too had passed away. Thus, Diabelli, on his own initiative, dedicated them to Schumann, who had the merit of always believing in Schubert's genius and following the fate of his works (it was he, in fact, who rediscovered the manuscript of the Symphony in C major). This Sonata combines the beauty of its thematic material with a truly surprising formal fluidity. The first movement, with its solemn opening, is one of the broadest and most serene written by Schubert and appears devoid of those strong contrasts that usually characterize the initial movement. It should be noted in this regard that Schubert, even in his best moments, uses a less varied style of writing than Beethoven; his attention to the sonata form is also animated by less "intellectual curiosity". Yet, Schubert still manages to be original. In this first movement, for example, he achieves fascinating effects by presenting the theme against a harmonic background that changes each time, with tonal and expressive highlights of great effectiveness. This procedure does not greatly benefit the compactness of the work, but it must be acknowledged that it is precisely a typically romantic symptom to focus attention on a beautiful detail, rather than globally on the formal organization. After this broad and discursive Molto moderato movement, punctuated by pauses and trills in the bass part, recalling distant drum rolls, Schubert in the subsequent Andante sostenuto unfolds his intense lyricism, offering an amplified and solemn version of the Lied "Ständchen" (Serenade) written a few months earlier. Of note is the affinity of the motif appearing in the central section with the initial theme of the Sonata (Radcliffe) and, in the first and third sections, the use of the resonance pedal and the crossing of hands that allow different registers and timbres to resonate simultaneously: a technical solution rich in consequences that would extend to the impressionists (Rattalino). Another derivation from the thematic material of the first movement is found in the Allegro vivace con delicatezza (third movement), which is structured as a Scherzo with a rapid and delicate dance-like gait and a more compact Trio that has the appearance of a delightful "exercise" with a syncopated rhythm. The finale is a brilliant Rondò in which the vigorous flow of the discourse is periodically interrupted by a single note, a sustained G, which imposes a kind of brake on the main theme. Contrasting insertions are achieved with lyrical interludes and more dynamic and strong passages in the high register of the instrument. The conclusion with a spirited Presto closes this highly original last Schubertian creation which, despite the musical quality of the material with which it is shaped, has sometimes aroused reservations and misunderstandings.

Fast paced romantasy you will not want to put down!
Format: Kindle
4.25 stars! I LOVED this book with similar vibes to Hush Hush, Fourth Wing, and The Serpent and the Wings of Night! It was fast paced with easy world building and will keep you turning the pages late into the night because you will not want to put it down! Huntyr is a fierce bad@ss FMC trained to kill vampyres her entire life. She is sent on a mission to go to the academy and earn her spot into The Golden City. Upon arrival, she is forced to room with the delicious fallen angel, Wolf, who is the only one who knows about her assassin identity. The romance, the plot twists, the secrets revealed, the battles, and the tantalizing training scenes had me hooked! And that ending…. I’m holding my breath in need to know hell! Read if you love: 🪽 Fae, Vampyres, Fallen Angels 🪽 Academy setting with magical trials 🪽 Forced proximity and slow burn 🪽 Rivals to lovers 🪽 Hidden identities and secrets 🪽 Tend your wounds “𝘖𝘧 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘐 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘸𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘺𝘰𝘶.

Excellent Rivals to Lovers!!
Format: Kindle
The tension and banter between Huntyr and Wold was delectable. I absolutely love the fallen angel and all of his flaws. Huntyr is amazing too being a badass FMC with some major trauma. The world building was great and I enjoyed the training aspect of the story. The writing was immersive and was in the story the whole time. The ending had quite a twist that I hadn’t anticipated and made my jaw DROP. Excellent job! I also loved the narration. Laura is one of my fave narrators!

Fallen Angels, fae, vampires, oh my!
Format: Kindle
Rating: 4.5 | Spice: 2 (but a good slow-burn) • Main Characters: Huntyr and Wolf • I couldn’t wait to read this book; there was so much hype about it! And there was no doubt why. I fell in love with the characters and the plot itself. This book is mainly plot driven more than friction driven but it’s easy to follow along with. The characters are fun, easily understood. The main setting is at an academy where both the main characters are going through trials and building strength for the final test, The Transcendent. There are fantastic side characters as well. I loved the camaraderie between Huntyr and her friends. But we don’t like Lanson. 😆 We do have some plot twists that come into play throughout the book. Secrets and betrayal to be seen. I did adore Wolf and Huntyr’s relationship. It was a classic slow burn trope. They didn’t hit it off fast, but in time their feelings grew. I loved their banter, so sexy. Wolf is your next book boyfriend; Huntyr is your next vampire assassin independent bad-a*s female. Themes include loyalty, trust, self-discovery, a true slow burn romance. Side note: book ends on a angsty cliffhanger! • Emily, thank you for writing this awesome novel and I cannot wait to devour Book 2, Blood So Brutal! 😍 • Happy reading, my lovelies! xo

“My heart bows to you and you only, Huntress.”
Format: Kindle
3.5 🌟 This book popped up in my KU recommended reading suggestions and the synopsis sounded like what I was in the mood for. I'm so glad I took a chance on it. I went into this knowing absolutely nothing about it and ended up really liking it. I love when this happens. The main characters are likeable and I easily found myself rooting for them. There is a mystery element to each of their backstories that I enjoyed watching unfold and can't wait to get more of. Wolf, in particular, has me fixated. Love him. I found this to be an entertaining, addictive read with a plot that moves along at a good pace. It reads so easily I found myself very reluctant to put it down. Lots of twists and turns and the angst is there. A good set up for the next book to come, for sure. My issues with this book....the dialogue feels a bit juvenile at times and there is a repetitive over use of a particular word phrasing that I found myself giving the ole eye-roll to. There are, without a doubt, some pretty cliche moments that gave me a bit of the cringe. I think this could've certainly 100% benefited from more depth regarding the world building. Perhaps the world building was sacrificed to keep the pacing quick? Just a guess. Also, the lack of consistency of character for the FMC was really evident and so she feels quite illogical at times. Overall, this was a fun and enjoyable read that hit the spot well enough for me. That ending certainly has me impatiently pining for book 2!
