Recs from my recent perf… Not including alot of it because of too much cg fucking up. Had a really off night actually. Nerves/psyched out after bad beginning. Pffffffffffffffffffff
Scarbo
Scrib 2
Scrib 32/1
Brahms 10/4
(forgot to put this in the rar but tomorrow or sometime i’ll also up my Bach-Bus: Nun Komm der heiden heiland)
good cd to watch for:
kid coughing right on first note of scarb
missed jumps in da scarb
stupid missed note near beginning of 32/1
person dropping book or hard object on ground near sensitive end of brahms
Listening to da scarb, rezpecable fury , very effective interp and great musical understanding. but to be anti-sdc, i believe u give away too much of the fury in the first half of the work.
not gonna share your gibet or ondine? would love to hear em.
brahms sounds a bit mickey-inspired, tru beautiful playing
dno the scarb 2 too well to comment, but it sounds good. i should get to know this one better, sounds really amazing. i thought the 32/1 was a bit too one-sided, not enough contrast where it’s due, imo.
how did u record this? sounds great. your commitment in ur playing really excuses the mistakes, rezpec.
re: brahms, yeah i can’t yet get away from the mickey influence. need to spend more time and make it more personal. his is too godlike
i’ll post my ondine and gibet sometime… still not too happy with perf… re: scrib 32/1: i feel the whole piece as a very static/ecstatic lush thingy… probably i undermined this by taking it too fast
hm well every 32/1 i’ve heard is very personal, i think i even play it a tad faster than you, i just felt there wasn’t too much contrast, but i understand your idea about the staticness. tiz a mattah of tazte tru
I’ve got another older rec of those pieces which is slightly better. Maybe I’ll upload the first prelude from this time and the 2nd prelude from the previous time
fuckin respec da Scarbo speed… the paralel second passages at the end of the “middle” section sounds fucking clean (or good voicing )
the fucking leaps with repeated notes in between tru… i never had them 100% clean, its hard.
i could only suggest to look after more fine and subtle moments, specially in the first half. There are many people already raping this piece so it comes nice to listen people actually caring about the dynamics (wich of course are a bit “too subtle” already)
tru i agree, wtf is up with fucking noisy people at recitals?? i went to a recorded recital last week, and people just don’t fucking care and just walk around with their heels on hardwood floors.
that’s not as bad as talking while the performer’s playing, which some old broad was doing during the last recital I went to, then when the pianist started to play Chopin 34/1 as an encore she gasped and started clapping (I figured it was the only piece on the programme she had heard before).
