Sergei Prokofiev (1891-1953) set to work on his Piano Concerto No. 2 in G minor, Op. 16, in 1912 and completed it the next year. But that version of the concerto is lost; the score was destroyed in a fire following the Russian Revolution. Prokofiev reconstructed the work in 1923, two years after finishing his Piano Concerto No. 3, and declared it to be "so completely rewritten that it might almost be considered [Piano Concerto] No. 4." Indeed its orchestration has features that clearly postdate the 1921 concerto. Performing as soloist, Prokofiev premiered this "No. 2" in Paris on May 8, 1924 with Serge Koussevitzky conducting. It is dedicated to the memory of Maximilian Schmidthof, a friend of Prokofiev's at the Saint Petersburg Conservatory who had killed himself in 1913. Movements: 1. Andantino-Allegretto (10-12 minutes), 2. Scherzo: Vivace (2-3 minutes), 3. Intermezzo: Allegro moderato (6-8 minutes), 4. Finale: Allegro tempestoso (10-11 minutes) Detailed instrumentation: Pno Solo: 2.2.2.2: 4.2.3.1: Timp.Perc(2-3): Str (9.8.7.6.5).
