This is probably a recording from the world premiere (Berwaldhallen, Stockholm, 12 December 2003). The soprano is Lena Hoel and the orchestra conducted by Susanna Mälkki is the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra (and Chorus).

Wait what omfg

Nice themes

The real tragedy here is the coughing fits throughout Hamelin's performance, which (of course) are at their worst right when the final resolution to B minor happens. Hamelin was delivering a beautifully nuanced and hushed close as well... nearly drowned out entirely :/ Also-and I can't believe I'm saying this-but I actually really enjoyed Gould's stretching the tempi to their limits?

6:24

any piece recommendations that sound mostly like the 13th variation?

Gould does a good job don't get me wrong, but Hamelin totally kicks his ass up & down the block on this one

Interesting sonata but sadly not played well!

You know Hamelin is serious when he decided to play something in slow tempo.

Chronochromie vibes

My professor played this for us back in 1988 and the tune has stayed with me ever since-wow!

There's an eye(ear)opener, what a fantastic piece and performance. Thank you.

Var. 10 = Stockhausen

Grande bellissima opera. Grazie

Interesting Sound World. Glad to hear this. Like others, I first heard U Oppens’ recording of work.

Highly Scriabinesque conceptions but unfortunately not particularly well written. he original symphonic work is much better

Hamelin's rendition is significantly better than Oppens' rendition. He just had better overall control. (You can get an idea from Var 27)

i wish i could see the lyrics for the 4th symphony since i don't speak russian lol

"Eclairs" are one of my favourite types of doughnut...^^

Wow! Thanks for uploading! I liked it very much😮 where did you find the score?

Заклинание is such a classic. Easily my favourite.

That has got to be insanely hard to play. The cellist has to have really long fingers to be able to play those octaves of which neither note is an open string, and later sometimes you have to play arco and pizzicato simultaneously, while the pianist sometimes has to play more notes than they have fingers. Congratulations to the performers for being able to pull this off. And then this composition also has some crazy rhythms for both instruments -- that can't be easy to play either. And that's before you get into reading that original score, although I've seen worse (except for a couple of places where it looks like the paper got folded over before being scanned).

An amazing piece! Sirodeau , whoever you are, you are some pianist! .

Roslavets enjoyers stand and be counted!

37:38 epic win

Pretty cool

never

Stunning and very interesting. My don't more pianists include at least some of these in their recitals?

Monumental! I wonder if variations 27 or 29 inspired any of Yoshimatsu's Pleiades Dances...

2nd is like 2nd of 1st hindemith

Possibly the greatest piece of music ever written, to this very day

24:04 I like so much this chord.

Кто оркестровал этот чудный концерт?

I first heard these many years ago in a small room in Huddersfield (not long after they were written) performed by Rzewski himself. An experience I will never forget. When the recording (Ursula Oppens) came out it did not leave my turntable for a week. A magnificent piece. Rzewski is one of the great composers of our time. Greatly missed. RIP

I still love #1 in B Minor (1911), with its incredible finale -- the largest for any symphony without chorus. Composed by a teenager, it seems like it can go against now popular works of Mahler, Bruckner, Strauss and even early Schoenberg (the influence of Gurrelieder is apparent).

4:23, 8:17 Love those moments of stillness amidst the chaos

This pice make honor to his name, this reminds me of other world music, thanks
