speaking of Chopin, now playingstart of Chopin: Piano Sonata No. 2 in B-Flat Minor, Op. 35https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iH_T7oSVcDI&list=OLAK5uy_n01kZ77ZSuBf7rkScZir5bZYFJz2IJ4c0&index=2Chopin: Nocturnes, Op. 48: No. 2 in F-Sharp Minorhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGWfVlLk3gs&list=OLAK5uy_n01kZ77ZSuBf7rkScZir5bZYFJz2IJ4c0&index=6start of Chopin: Piano Sonata No. 3 in B Minor, Op. 58https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gC-Ah_otPS0&list=OLAK5uy_n01kZ77ZSuBf7rkScZir5bZYFJz2IJ4c0&index=7Chopin: Barcarolle in F-Sharp Major, Op. 60https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18KrcGBxR48&list=OLAK5uy_n01kZ77ZSuBf7rkScZir5bZYFJz2IJ4c0&index=10https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_n01kZ77ZSuBf7rkScZir5bZYFJz2IJ4c0>Rafal Blechacz has been deeply associated with the music of Fryderyk Chopin across his whole career. His devotion to the music of his great compatriot began long before 2005 when he won the Warsaw Chopin Competition. "I learnt both sonatas while still in my teens. Now I think it was the right moment to go to the studio and record this programme. I didn't want to wait any longer." - Rafal Blechacz.I'm still on the search for my favorite recording(s) of Chopin's piano sonatas. Hopefully this one is a winner.
>>128080916>Chopin's piano sonatas.No.2: RachmaninoffNo.3: CortotIt's simple really.
>>128080924>No.2: RachmaninoffIs that piano roll?Do you have any modern favorites, RachAnon?
>>128080931not that anon but my favorite is Gilels for both
>>128080911non, he sucks
>>128080940why? i like this piano piece OP posted, sounds a little like Messiaen
>>128080951>why?too much avantgarde foolery
>>128080911I don't listen to Stockhausen, but what I would do is go herehttps://www.talkclassical.com/threads/compilation-of-the-tc-top-recommended-lists.17996and then ctrl+f 'stockhausen' and see what comes up, and if any do, those can be safely said to be essential. It probably won't be comprehensive but surely a good start, leading you in the right direction.
>>128080939I do love me some Gilels. Didn't know he had any Chopin but I suppose I should have figured.
>>128080931No. Listen to that funeral march (the reprise) and the finale is unlike anything else, and the rest obviously, it's something only Rach could do. Or has done at least. Horowitz and Godowsky are good also.>>128080939Yeah Gilels is good. Rach is over the top good for 2nd.
>>128081009>it's something only Rach could dowell, he did have an unfair advantage.
>>128081009>No.If you have the time and inclination, you should give the Blechacz one I posted a quick sample. It may suck, I'm not vouching for it since I haven't heard it obviously, but yeah, you never know.
>>128080916So this guy won the Chopin Competition in '05, and this recording came out in '23. 18 years. So that means in 2043, whoever wins this year might be releasing a similar album that will be posted here. Interesting to think about.
>>128081037Sure why not. It probably won't suck though lol, piss label is actually good.>>128081036True
Listen to that smooth ascend into forte. And then descend back.https://youtu.be/HdTX6RdI1zc?si=ZaMdow2aln6zZWZY&t=59It's unbelievable the command he has over the instrument. That bit sounds almost dreadful. In a good way. Compare it to any other version.
Third time's the charm.
:-D
What are some good Chopin pieces to listen to while having sex?
>>128081437Cello sonata
>>128081437Raindrop Prelude, thrust with the beat
James Tenney
>>128081437Sonata No. 2
I've heard and digested the 1st and the 5th and have listened through the 4th. So far my favourite movements are 5.1+2, 1.3+4, and 4.1. The second half of 4 felt way too cheery for my tastes, I like drama and hysterics. Which symphonies do I go for next?
>>128081437I don't know about Chopin, but I've fucked to Korsakov's Scheherazade, shit's dope
>>128081943The 8th is his best.
>>1280819436th obviously. Then 9th, then rest.
>>128081943Just go in order from that point imo. 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
>>128082099He'll quit before he can digest the 3rd. I still can't.

>"Anyone who knows how difficult it is to play harmonic modulations and good counterpoint on the lute will be surprised and full of disbelief to hear from eyewitnesses that Weiss, the great lutenist, challenged J.S. Bach, the great harpsichordist and organist, at playing fantasies and fugues.">*blachs your path*>nuthin personnel Was there a more chad composer in existent?

>average BABIAA listenerWe will disarm and subdue every 18th-19th century heretic that would put on a Mozart Piano concerto or Chopin NocturneWe are the Mockers of MozartWe put a chokehold on classicismWe are the Cuckolders of ChopinWe are the Rapists of RomanticsWe are the murderers of MahlerWe strike fear in every pretentious and neurotic writer of 1 hour symphonies
>Listening to Bach>not listening to Mozart>Listening to Marais>Not listening to Haydn>Listening to Ravel>not listening to Mahler>listening to Stravinsky>not listening to Schoenberg or ShostakovichIs there a better feeling in this world?
>Your Romanticism>My Foot>Your Classicism>My FistI will crush the Mozart enjoyers, and liberate the Chopin listeners with Vivaldi, Josquin, and Perotin
>Bach>Machaut>Ives>Marais>Buxtehude>Stravinsky>Reich>BartokNo Mozart, No Brahms, No Haydn, No MahlerNo Autistic Teutonic spirit shall oppress or taint the Gallic, Latin, and Slavic soul
Mozart gives me the ick,As does Brahms, Mahler, early-middle Beethoven, Bruckner, Chopin, Schumann, Strauss II, Hindemith, Schoenberg, Reger, Berg, Tchaikovsky, Boulez, Stockhausen, Haydn, Bruch, Salieri, Shostakovich, Clementi, and ProkofievThat is all
>when they listen to Mozart and Haydn concertos and completely neglect the Sun Kings court>When they listen to vocal works by Verdi, Rossini or Puccini, but not Palestrina or the Franco-Flemish School>When they don't listen to Marin Marais more frequently than Beethoven or Brahms>No Perotin or Medieval Music

I kneel
Chopin complete Etudes best recording?
How did he do it bros? How come organ sounds like complete fucking shit after Bach only for this Flemish saint to bring it back from the dead? And why does it sound so awful after him aside from Vierne, Jongen, Durufle, and a handful of Messiaen pieces where he isn't spazzing out like a modernist autist?
>>1280838692nd best Chopin Nocturnes recording
>>128083894?
What does /classical/ think of recordings by the Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra? I have a bunch of CD rips here.https://gofile.io/d/ikSkH0
>>128083869https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAVVMjLWjks
Liszthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IimY_LP8VYY&list=OLAK5uy_npRU6ykx5j7UglQH5c8N_4knOX3cuZkEY&index=2>Among his piano roll recordings is a performance of Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No. 12; he annotated this recording to suggest that it was how he had heard Liszt play it. cool
>>128083930anything from the 60s or later?
>>128084437https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqVsQ2nKBpcor just get the samson set i guess
>>128083877What about Bruckner's organ music?
>>128080852Gesang der Junglinge or Kontakte, /classical/?
>>128084569i like Cziffra's Liszt, didn't know he did Chopin's etudes
>>128084331Which Liszt student is that?
>>128083869>>128084437There are hundreds of recordings of them, many many good ones. Anyway, if you like fast, Yunchan Lim; if you like slow, Jan Lisiecki; and if you want middleground, Pollini, Ashkenazy, or Perahia. Take your pick, and enjoy!
>>128085192>The pianist who recorded a performance of Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No. 12 and claimed it was how he had heard Liszt play it was Bernhard Stavenhagen, a Wikipedia article states. He was Liszt's last pupil, and this piano roll recording from 1905, which is preserved as a valuable historical document, included an inscription suggesting it was performed "as played by Liszt," according to MusicWeb International and a YouTube video.
Actually, forget Mozart, I'm gonna go through my Chopin obsession phase.
>>128083877>Flemish saintCesar Franck is wallon, don't ever call him flemish you pillock
>>128083877I like most of the French Notre Dame school following Franck.
