But it had been done before, especially in the late 19th century. Taking Sergei Prokofiev’s masterpiece,\r\n\r\nThe Fiery Angel, and recomposing – no, re-imagining – it into a half-hour story that completely conveys the story with just two instruments, that’s a monumental task. A task which Maya Fridman took upon herself in 2015, as part of her Master’s Degree in cello performance (for which she received the highest honors, cum laude).\r\n\r\nTo be able to create this arrangement, she needed to work out a way to portray all these different roles of the story with just two instruments, cello and piano. The hysterical, erratic Renata, the knight Ruprecht, Madiël, the Fiery Angel himself, and even figures such as the Village Witch and the people at the convent in Trier, all are portrayed wonderfully by Maya’s arrangement for these two instruments. Her famously expressive playing style came in perfectly to suit the various timbres her arrangement requires.\r\n\r\nMaya Fridman says \"\u003cem\u003eThe idea of this work came to me in December 2014. A few months before that, I started to play with Artem Belogurov. His genius and charisma prompted me look for a piece which could develop into an exciting and mystic adventure. \u003c\/em\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cem\u003eI knew what I wanted to find: the depth embracing the light and the dark, a story that could transcend time and language, music itself. Going back to December I was sharing my ideas with my mother, when she spontaneously suggested to arrange Prokofiev’s The Fiery Angel. The prospective of working on this piece thrilled me and at the same time seemed impossible.\" \u003c\/em\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaya Fridman, Cello\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtem Belogurov, Piano\u003c\/strong\u003e","brand":"TRPTK","offers":[{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56739171696964,"sku":"TTK0009-7","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56739171729732,"sku":"TTK0009-9","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56739171762500,"sku":"TTK0009-10","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56739171795268,"sku":"TTK0009-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 128 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56739171828036,"sku":"TTK0009-15","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 256 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56739171860804,"sku":"TTK0009-16","price":29.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56739171893572,"sku":"TTK0009-17","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 128 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56739171926340,"sku":"TTK0009-18","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 256 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56739171959108,"sku":"TTK0009-19","price":27.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DXD 24 Bit \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56739171991876,"sku":"TTK0009-22","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DXD 24 Bit \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56739172024644,"sku":"TTK0009-23","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ Auro3D","offer_id":56739172057412,"sku":"TTK0009-61","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57310190928196,"sku":"TTK0009-6","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57336134041924,"sku":"TTK0009S1417","price":32.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 128 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57336134074692,"sku":"TTK0009S1517","price":34.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 256 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57336134107460,"sku":"TTK0009S1617","price":38.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57336134140228,"sku":"TTK0009S69","price":29.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57336134172996,"sku":"TTK0009S710","price":28.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/TTK0009-1.jpg?v=1790500370","url":"https:\/\/www.nativedsd.com\/products\/ttk0009-the-fiery-angel","provider":"NativeDSD Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
