Piano Concerto No. 17

Peskanov Piano Concerto No. 17 (In Baroque Style), arranged for two pianos.

Piano Concerto No. 17 “In Baroque Style” by Alexander Peskanov is dedicated to his friend, Irina Ovtchinnikova, who is a marvelous pianist and harpsichordist. The concept of this concerto was to write something in baroque style that would be accessible to younger students. This work in E minor consists of three contrasting movements: Praeludium, Air sur la jeunesse éternelle and Ricercare, and has German, French and Italian baroque flavors. Young pianists will find this work quite engaging since it serves as a good showcase for the performance of contrapuntal texture, where two or more melodic lines intertwine. The use of ornamentation is also incorporated.
