Lovely to see the great @MarcAndreHam after my recital last night in Berlin
@houghhough So great to reconnect with you as well! Wonderful to see you and hear you again.
I’d sure go if I could!
Having had my life changed as a university student by a live recording from 1961 of Ralph Kirkpatrick playing an entire evening of modern music, well, now I guess I'm doing it.
@jessicaduchen Splendid review Jessica - a pleasure to read!
@StevenIsserlis @Iberia @Finnair As long as you don’t end up disappearing into Finnair…
Dear @NYTGames - ‘concomitant ‘ is a legitimate word!!! Spelling Bee is rejecting it…
@BatmanAoD Anything, good or bad, is formative.
I frankly don’t know how this young man could do this, but the fact remains that I don’t go for Sorabji’s longer works. Who wants to listen to 90-minute-long fugues? It’s important to remember that Sorabji needed to CREATE more than actually be performed. 1/2
@MarcAndreHam What do you think of this live performance of the ENTIRE Opus Archimagicum youtube.com/watch?v=dhGjs2…
Out today - grab’em while they’re gettable! facebook.com/share/p/1CDAdr…
Hé did the same kind of thing with the Brandenburgs. Inexplicable.
Why don’t we ever hear Max Reger’s piano duet version of Bach’s Orchestral Suites in concert? Because the primo (top) and secondo (bottom) parts are scored like this👇 Which would you rather play? 🤣 #OrchestralSuites4Hands #Bach #piano
Or Boulez sonatas
Not into acoustics or phonetics, are ya, Spelling Bee…
I’m so proud to be associated with @musicforfood and its guiding spirit Kim Kashkashian! Please come! I’ll be playing Shostakovich’s Viola Sonata and Fauré’s 2nd Piano Quartet. And proceeds go to @WLPBoston, an inspiring and essential shelter for homeless women.
Having a few sweet moments with Bear…
The forms are usually traditional enough, but so distended in time as to make a proper projection of them, understandable to everyone, a very, very tall order.
@MarcAndreHam Do you have any thoughts on his form (or lack of it, as some would hear it)? I can't tell if he's terrible with form or just using a completely different aesthetic wrt form compared to Chopin, Brahms, Scriabin, Schoenberg, etc.
There’s nothing wrong in being introduced to things while young, whatever they might be. This bio sentence is a little misleading (I didn’t write it myself). My dad and I usually discovered these things at the same time. For a long time the only Sorabji I knew was the MW pastiche
@MarcAndreHam Did you know that one of the first sentences of your biography on wikipedia says that your father "introduced" you to Sorabji (among other "difficult" composers) while you were "still young"? I've always sort of wondered whether you actually consider that a formative experience.
I do like many of his shorter pieces, such as ‘Gulistan’.
@MarcAndreHam Personally sorabji’s music works as a transitory sound space, the same way as ambience, but with more capacity to tune in and become an active listener. His nocturnes and free rhapsodic writing are what really draw me in
It seems to me that the IDEA of such huge works is much more attractive than the music itself. And if pianists are attracted to it only because it’s pianistically difficult, I think they’re on the wrong track. The audience is what matters foremost, not the performance… 2/2
@MarcAndreHam What do you think of this live performance of the ENTIRE Opus Archimagicum youtube.com/watch?v=dhGjs2…
J’aurais bien aimé pouvoir assister à un de ses concerts-maison…Je suis un grand fan de son Apocalypse de Jean.
Il m'aimait bien, j'adorais sa musique dont je lui avais dit qu'elle avait été la porte d'entrée d'un monde de sons nouveaux pour moi, grâce à un professeur de musique au collège, Claudette Bohn, à qui je dois tant...
