Thank you all for the kind comments and taking time to watch my videos. This recording is from a concert back from my Oberlin conservatory years my friend had recorded and found! (2002?) Unfortunately, quasi Faust and 40 ans could not be found, but ill do my best one day to relearn and post!

If you told me this was a recording by Marc from the late 1990's, I wouldn't be able to tell it's not right, and I'm saying this after listening to countless Hamelin recordings, including 5 Alkan Sonatas from different venues! Man, your playing is absolutely outstanding - full of emotions, passion and youthful vigor. Thanks for sharing this! Can't wait to hear your Quasi Faust :)

F@$king amazing! I've heard 20 ans and 30 ans literally thousands of times and this escaped me until today. If I didn't know this was by you, I would swear this was a bootleg Hamelin. Damn! We have the Gangnam Style at almost 2 Billion views and we have treasures like this at less than a 1000. SMH!

@jrb50772 жыл бұрын
I'd class it as an upwards-resolving suspension (sometimes called a retardation). The E in the bass implies a chord of E major (the subdominant chord of B major, the key of this passage). But the notes in the upper two voices - F sharp and A sharp - don't belong to this chord, they are "held over" from the last beat of the previous bar. They resolve up to the expected notes, E and G sharp respectively, on the last beat of the bar.

This is amazing! As madlovba3 stated, very much like hamelin. Which is about as good as it gets. But I think this is possibly BETTER. It's more EXCITING, which it should be, about a man in his early adulthood. Wish you could find 30 ans, it's my favourite movement

I agree it's too fast. The question is not what très vite means but whether the performance is musically intelligible. And I think this speed obscures some of the musical detail in a way I doubt the composer intended.
@j.vonhogen96506 ай бұрын
@@robert-skibelo- There's no reason to doubt anything. Alkan's intentions are written in his score, and his instructions are crystal clear. This is a faithful and excellent recording of the piece, so you could as well say something positive about this pianist instead of being such a Debby Downer/Negative Nancy. Or maybe you aren't in your 20s anymore and have now become too slow to really enjoy Alkan's famous piece, in which case I would advice you to simply adjust the playback speed of this video in the KZbin settings.
