Gibbons plays Alkan En rythme molossique Op.39 no.2

[@gideonperkins7836]

I love Alkan so much. It's such a shame nobody knows him since he was kind of outshined by Chopin and Liszt. Well that and the fact that he was a social recluse who never performed.

I feel the same, but he did perform in his early life, and also before he died

[@JackGibbonsHQ]

Many times! I think it's a wonderful piece.

[@fishingtrio7823]

@@agamaz5650 They can not hate on Alkan, they can only be vary jelous on him.

What a hypnotic piece.. i've listened to this a dozen times or so in a row now. it's strange, i've known this piece for a while, but only now it has grown on me. that might be the fantastic performance, what a power you put into it! amazing music.

[@markusenzenhofer3197]

This is incredible!

[@doffoffo]

Jack Gibbons you are an absolute legend, thanks for the best Alkan recordings by far, sound quality is perfect as well

[@hugonoble]

so much music to discover, like alkan, dussek, henselt, rubinstein, and most of all famous pianist in todays music is stuck in only one place for many years playing the same: beethoven, shubert, ects...

[@4candles]

It's always great to hear this work again. Have you often performed this work in concert?

[@Querdenker-Traumgefaehrte]

Wunderbar gespielt! Ein bemerkenswertes Video! Danke.

bravo!

[@nicholas72611]

Pano Pouroullis Most of Alkan's pieces are verrrrry hard to play and some pieces (Le Preux) are so hard that there are no known recordings of them. I would say you would need fantastic technique to play most of his pieces.

[@TempodiPiano]

Why do you like Alkan, Mr. Gibbons? It's a technic challenge but doesn't he "basic"? Well, I really love these Etudes and the Symphony.

[@jakehouston3377]

Nicolas Messina “basic”?

[@LMDAFL]

Pano Pouroullis From my wrists to my elbows I'd be sore for usually about two days at a time, but there's never been permanent damage.

[@1333x_x]

Expected gibbons to play instead of a person.

[@glum_hippo]

Jackgibbons are not like jackrabbits. I'm sorry you were misled.
