This is a tournament. And the beginning is so romantic... A very good performance.

[@nss4472]

Agree with you, good performance and good exercise for the right hand too😮😅 It sounds like a paraphrase of some Italian opera🍕🍷😅 Some people said that it sounds like Liszt, i should name it... Liszted Verdi😊

[@janjacobi127]

excellent performance. Very powerful and interesting piece

[@czernyiam8278]

Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!bravo

[@seantiwell9717]

Ein lyrischer Beginn und ein pompöses, geradezu Liszt'sches Finale. Vor allem die letzten 7-8 Takte könnten geradewegs aus Liszt's Feder stammen! Kein Wunder - hat er ihn doch persönlich gekannt...

Remarkable choice, Dear Julian!!! Quite a mix between a dual inspiration from this Swiss composer: - first, a parody of Chopin, where, at 1:06, you can imagine cow bells ringing in a green field (a commercial for Swiss chocolates!!), - and second, at 5:52, a more brilliant march that sounds like it was inspired by a (simplified!!) Alkan Etude. Interestingly, this composer was in fact a pupil of both Chopin and Liszt (who himself considered Alkan as more of a viruoso than he was himself. Thanks again, Dear Julian, for the bio summary and, once again, for a lovely choice and your ongoing unearthing of hidden musical little treasures.! Stay safe! KR JS

Thanks for the informative comment!

There's no more than 5 or 6 notes of the opening theme that may have been source of inspiration for one of the tunes of Godfather II (used for instance when young Godfather, De Niro, moves his first steps as immigrant in New York and sings that song to baby Sonny). Perhaps just a coincidence....

It's nice to hear something new instead of the hackneyed and endless Chopin.

[@olga_piano]

I agree with the first part of the statement, but it is impossible to hackney Chopin precisely because he is infinite.

[@nss4472]

There are composers that can be put in turnaround mode and their music never get noisy or untasty. Chopin, Debussy and Ravel are among them. Tenderness today is kinda fresh air for one's ears. Always, any time...

[@mrsnegy6001]

Chopin can never be hackneyed or endless and in fact, he might turn out to be eternal. It is certainly great that Mr. Gamma introduces us to little-played, hardly-known, or simply forgotten but beautiful music. But please! don't do this to the great Chopin.

@@mrsnegy6001 What happens to the recordings of Chopin's music on the Internet and in the media has nothing to do with the real Chopin (Chopin's musical genius). Chopin created live music for live performance on the live piano. I think that Chopin himself would be horrified by what is happening in his music on KZbin, and in this I support him.

[@mrsnegy6001]

@@DmitryVorona You are absolutely right. Just one small ! detail - trying to find the right tempo by means of that little button -- speaks volumes. My point is that the authentic Chopin, no matter how many interpretations, is a genius.

[@mrsnegy6001]

One segment sounds very much like a polonaise.
