The three so-called War Sonatas Nos. 6–8 were composed in the years 1939–1944, while Prokofiev was evacuated from Moscow to Kazakhstan and the Caucasus. The reference to the siege of Leningrad was a prerequisite for the success of the compositions, which continue the tradition of Beethoven rather than conforming to the stylistic maxims of “socialist realism” in force at the time.
The first movement of Sonata No. 6 is characterized by blatant dissonances, noise effects and merciless rhythms. In the second movement, the ’cruel seriousness’ is replaced by dance-like verve in a cheerful march with spirited variations on the theme. The work is suitable for advanced pianists.
