William Gillock: Sonatine
Pianist Paul Orgel performs "Sonatine" by William Gillock (1917 - 1993), a work in 3 movements:
I. Moderately fast
II. Slowly, with drowsy movement
III. Vigorously, rhythmically
I'm not sure whether people know this piece or the unpretentious American composer, William Gillock, who wrote such fresh, engaging "Intermediate" level piano music. His Sonatine has a sort of Franco-Russian flavor with hints, perhaps, more of Milhaud than Debussy, more Kabalevsky than Prokofiev. I recall the pleasure of how well it fit in my hands when I was young, and recorded it recently when I realized it had remained permanently in my memory.

Beautiful playing
Lovely!
überCHARGE
never wanted it to end....
Awesome performance! I love the slow movements and you're the first I've heard pay proper attention to the accents in the first movement!
A very articulate and convincing interpretation. One of my very favorite pieces of music, and you capture both the tragedy and the majesty in its broad arc. Cheers!
I’m referring just to the Toccata btw - listening to the rest of the suite now!
An apt subject for the blues. A powerful song.
Heartbreaking 💔
A heart-rending elegy. I couldn't help but wonder how Paul Orgel could play this performance without lapsing into tears.
Deeply gripping. Large-scale lament. Fantastic performances.
amazing music ❤
Wonderful pianist. Most well-known pianists today don't play half as beautifully and intelligently. So sensitive to the content of the music. Masterly rubato, phrasing, balance, tempo... The list goes on
Thanks so much, Michael-
Exquisite. Extraordinary. Unique
Beautiful music and recording. Enjoyed the personal text which is reflected perfectly in the settings. I greatly admire Curt's vocal writing.
I haven't heard such a poignant dirge in a long time. Curt Cacioppo's music, which I had previously known mainly from his string quartets, is neither shrill nor pathetic, but just as dignified and loving as the words Paul Orgel finds in the interview about his late son. Mary Bonhag has a very beautiful and sure-footed voice.
Really great performance! Wow. Beautifully and moving piece. It reminded me of the Copland Fantasy, which is is an all time fav of mine. (Though a bit longer🤣). I heard the Bach partita 6 too which is excellent indeed!
Thanks so much, Alan!
Love it! Beautifully played. At the heart is a warm melodic impulse, even when the mood becomes cantankerous.
Many thanks! Appreciate your listening -
That was wonderful, Paul!
Thank you! (Inspiring music.)
Lovely❤️
This is healing
Thanks so much, Nella.
Love both the music and performance Thank you Neely and Paul
There is so much depth in Brahms music like no others! Thank you for sharing your great performance with us!❤
Thanks for listening
That was beautiful - thank you, sir.
Very welcome
Nicely played!❤
Lovely!!
I also enjoyed your performance. 👏👏🌷
thanks! (Part 2 is coming soon)
Beautifully played, really enjoyed listening to your interpretation!
thanks!
Absolutely beautiful!
Nice playing! Great to see someone other than Lili Kraus playing such an unfairly underrated piece.
Thank you very much!
Superb!
These two mazurkas are nice to hear again and finely presented here by Paul Orgel.
What a beautiful piece! Thank you for sharing the historical background about it and of course, Curt's music is always a joy to hear and experience.
Yes! Thanks so much
Beautiful sounds right
That’s beautiful❤
I know I'm biased, but this music is revelatory, and gorgeously played!
the camera angle 👌 the playing 🤌🔥
I'm stumped. Please tell us! Thank you for your exquisite playing.
Bedrich Smetana: Andante ma non troppo, Opus 2, No. 6. Could be mistaken for Schubert...
@@paulorgel4503 Ahh Smetana, of course. Thank you.
Brilliant!
==> Thank you for that confident and energetic interpretation! Perhaps your name should be Paul Klavier. ... Eigentlich, spielen Sie Orgel? . . . .
Gorgeous!
==> Trick question? Is it perhaps 'Mystery Piece,' composed by Paul Orgel? ... Pleasant, soothing, and lyrical, whoever penned it! . . . .
==> One of my favorite pieces of the classical repertoire! Quite a handful to perform. Thanks very much for sharing that. Such elegant, noble music. . . . . .
Beautiful piece Paul!
Sounds like Schubert or something, I don't know! Nice though!
That was really nice!
My dear father, I dance with you in my dreams every night. The fact that you are gone forever fills me with sadness when I wake up, but I want to create one last beautiful memory for you with elegant music and leisurely steps. Father, don't let go of my hand. Please look at my face. By the end of this song, the dawn light will have taken you away. I will make eye contact with you and send you a smile. Now I have to close my eyes to see you.
A mazurka by Dvorak not often heard with a lovely performance here by Paul Orgel!
louis moyse always admired the colors in your playing. So do I. tender and beautiful.
Playing Bach at home modality.
Are you a professional pianist? Thank you for amazing play.
