She is my favorite. No one plays ornaments like her. No one. We lost this wonder woman way too soon. I love her Ravel and Scarlatti, but most of all her Couperin, which was removed from yt about 3 years ago.

Marcelle Meyer was and will remain an utterly unique voice in pianisme. There is a reason she was never as popular as any of those "grandi virtuosi" of yore. What she had is untranslatable, elusive and impossible to capture in words. Her name is unsallied by academic ranking nor by rabid fans adoration. She never sold out because there is no question was posed. She by her nature stood way above all that nonsense, like fame and its toxic byproducts. Serene and pure is her style. Light is her touch. Airy is her sensuality. Rigorous is her musicality. How can that be popular with masses? I can only be grateful for that. Those who recognize her voice will never stray.

Thank you for this great piece of appreciation. There are so many artists who share her experience of unfair lack of recognition.

I can think of one other who played this serenely. The late wonderful Lilian Kallir.

la clarté, la lumière, l'équilibre naturel, l'esprit, la grâce française du 18ème siècle, voilà Rameau! Watteau est là pour un embarquement pour Cythère... Cette fraîcheur est traduite de manière simple et remarquable par Marcelle Meyer. (une référence!!)

Not sure how to describe it, but there is a unique something that sets Mm Meyer's playing apart from other period pianists playing harpsichord music, e.g., Rosalyn Turek; even Landowska herself would have had difficulty matching the sheer beauty of Meyer's playing.

People are so amazing ; they cannot appreciate beauty for what it is. They always have to put ahead some vain issue like national status and so on. Aren't we human first? Suffering human with so many limitations we put to ourselves.

That makes a lot of people, don't you think so? But tell me, in a forest, witch tree is the most important? The biggest one? Did you ever considered that the most powerful musician might have come from a puny little shrub? Why do people always need to compare?

From his wiki: "Chopin was a Polish composer and virtuoso pianist of French-Polish parentage." That's what I meant, you're not counting him because he's half french.

There is no doubt that Saint-Saens was the greatest French composer
@punkpoetry8 жыл бұрын
Some of his concerti and chamber music are nice but he's a dwarf compared to Debussy, who opened up new worlds of possibility in Western music. Saint-Saens is a minor academic composer next to Debussy

I prefer Machaut, Josquin, Lully, Dufault, Louis Couperin, François Couperin, Rameau, Mondonville, and others. So we can't really say there's "no doubt"; it's not so simple as that.
