MichaelNanasakov
Tchaikovsky 'The Nutcracker', arr. for solo piano by Sergei Taneyev

くるみ割り人形 ピアノ独奏用編曲（セルゲイ・タネーエフ）
「くるみ割り人形」はバレエ作品として長時間ではないが、1枚のＣＤに収めるために無用の繰り返しはやめ、作曲者の指定テンポ（結構速い！）を越えない程度の速度、また一部を大胆にカットすることで、79分58秒になるように最初から計算してから録音した。第18曲の「ジゴーニュ小母さんと道化たち (La Mere Gigogne et les Polichinelles)」は収録時間制限のため、わずか19秒のウルトラ・ショート・バージョンとしたが、通常バージョン(2mn42s)をwebからダウンロード出来るようにしたので、一応「全曲録音」と思って頂きたい。

    Tchaikovsky 'The Nutcracker', arr. for solo piano by Sergei Taneyev
    "The Nutcracker" is not a long ballet work, but in order to fit it on a single CD, Nanasakov did not use unnecessary repetitions, and calculated from the beginning to record it at a speed that would not exceed the composer's specified tempo (which is quite fast!) and by boldly cutting some parts. The 18th piece, "La Mere Gigogne et les Polichinelles" was made into an ultra-short version of only 19 seconds due to the recording time limit, but the normal version (2mn42s) is available for download from the web. So you can consider it as a "full recording".
