I haven't played the piano in years, but this piece inspires me to get back it
@SampoLapilill5 жыл бұрын
I m totally blown away by this piano version and I consider the music written for the film The Hours, among Philip Glass' most sublime compositions. This pianist seems to me to have captured the very essence of the piece itself. As someone said earlier, I now prefer this version over the full instrumental rendition. Philip Glass somehow tears away the fabric that separates infinity from everyday existence and listening to his work always takes me to another place. Thank you Maestro Batagov for sharing your superb playing of this very special piece of music.

thanks; just too bad the titles are so awful--and half the music--but I appreciate easily discovering immature pieces of music to gauge what normal people seem to like, and the awful titles help me realize what's going on in terms of where any iota of the talent is, if one finds any in this joke of a composition lol

Transporting and transforming. It elevates the soul. Anton Batagov knows how to imbue a moment with eternity. (The cough renders existential contrast / Commercials have gone).

Listening to the creations, the Art, of Glass is like looking at Fractal images on your PC as they descend and open in a progression like infinite flowers, beautiful, unique intellective images, always new yet the same, and like reading Dostoyevsky's shocking and brutal description of the descent to madness and final redemption -- a stunning, epistemological excursion into an amazing, human and uplifting experience.

I'd forgotten just how wonderful this performance was-so glad I stumbled back upon it and am now transported to a much nicer place in my head, does anyone out there still not believe that for all its pain, loss and struggle, life is Good and we are blessed in more ways than we can imagine? Thank you Anton, the talent you give to us is most certainly a blessing.

One of the best ever. It reminds me of the old times when playing on my auntie's piano as 3 years old every time when visiting Her with my father and since then still until today when it's still one of the most important instruments to put in almost every composition I try to make. Love it and can't leave it forever.

I have been listening to this performance for hours, several times on end. Now I tried again the original version with orchestra and dont like it so much anymore, I prefer the piano version. Well done Mr.Batagov, you sure captured the spirit of this magnificente music.

Anton, what a pleasure it is hear such a fine interpretation. If I may; I think you and Philip have made the easiest bridge between Virginia Woolf and me ... and by 'me' I hope it is 'all listeners'. One more thing: Gosh how refreshing is it to see a performer just with a look of concentration and no flouncing. No deeply pained expressions, no unnecessary waving of arms and head etc.

Those labels are created by historical context and are often arbitrary. You can not infer from them to actual musical elements. House music isn't called that way because it has houses in it, the most likely origin is from the Warehouse club in Chicago.
