Egghard - La rosée de perles, Op.34
This piece to me feels like a condensed, flashier version of the famous 'The Fountain' by Carl Bohm - and it could serve as a nice little encore piece.
Thanks for listening!
About the work:
Jules Egghard (1834-1867), also known as Julius Egghard, was an Austrian pianist and composer. He composed more than 250 salon pieces. He was a pupil of Carl Czerny and Simon Sechter, and in 1851, he was the soloist in the premiere of Schubert's Wanderer Fantasy (arranged by Liszt for piano and orchestra) in Weimar. La rosée de perles (The Dew of Pearls), Op.34 is subtitled 'Impromptu de salon'.

Wagner - In das Album der Fürstin Metternich (Albumblatt), WWV 94
Просмотров 6 тыс.Год назад
It's been a while since I last uploaded - I have been travelling, and also recently caught COVID... hopefully I will pick up the pace of weekly uploads soon again! This piece is another episode in the 'Didn't know this composer composed for piano' series. Personally I don't listen to enough Wagner to be able to tell what's particularly Wagnerian about this piece, but it's still a nice piece non...
Richard Strauss - Träumerei, No.4 from 'Stimmungsbilder', Op.9
Просмотров 4,7 тыс.Год назад
I didn't know that Richard Strauss wrote piano pieces. So when I found this hauntingly beautiful piece in a piano works collection I knew I had to play it. Thanks for listening! About the work: Richard Georg Strauss (1864-1949) was a German composer, conductor, pianist, and violinist. Considered a leading composer of the late Romantic and early modern eras, he has been described as a successor ...
Khachaturian - In the Folk Style, from 'Album for Children', Book 1 (Pictures of Childhood)
Просмотров 3,9 тыс.Год назад
Khachaturian's unique way of seamlessly fusing folk melodies with classical music has always fascinated me - and this little piece exemplifies his typical straightforward and accessible musical style. Thanks for listening! About the work: Aram Ilyich Khachaturian (1903-1978) was a Soviet and Armenian composer and conductor. He is considered one of the leading Soviet composers. While following t...
Mussorgsky - Hopak from 'The Fair at Sorochyntsi' (Original arrangement)
Просмотров 7 тыс.Год назад
While Mussorgsky's Hopak is a fairly popular piece, in terms of piano solo most of the recordings online are Rachmaninov's version, and it seems like the composer's own arrangement doesn't get enough love. Thanks for listening! About the work: Modest Petrovich Mussorgsky (1839-1881) was a Russian composer, one of the group known as 'The Five'. He was an innovator of Russian music in the Romanti...
Ornstein - Romance, No.3 from 'Nine Miniatures', SO 72
Просмотров 2,4 тыс.Год назад
Ornstein is a very interesting composer: on the one hand you have extremely dissonant and experimental pieces like 'Wild Men's Dance', but on the other hand he also composed very 'traditional' pieces like the one presented here. I first learned about this composer from his Piano Quintet, which is a masterpiece. Thanks for listening! About the work: Leo Ornstein (1895-2002) was an American exper...
Löschhorn - Gute Nacht (Good Night), No.10 from 'Aus der Kinderwelt', Op.96
Просмотров 9212 года назад
A lovely little piece by Löschhorn. Unfortunately I was unable to find the remaining pieces of this opus; I would love to play the work in its entirety. Thanks for listening! About the work: Carl Albert Löschhorn (1819-1905) was a German composer, pianist and piano pedagogue. Some of his piano studies are still popular today, including Op.65/66/67 of which the Étude Op. 66 No.22 is best known. ...
Leschetizky - Les Adieux, Op.14
Просмотров 3,3 тыс.2 года назад
Most people associate the words 'Les Adieux' with Beethoven's monumental piano sonata. That includes me, until I did a search on IMSLP and found this little salon piece. Thanks for listening! About the work: Theodor Leschetizky (1830-1915) was an Austrian-Polish pianist, professor, and composer. Leschetizky composed over a hundred characteristic piano pieces, primarily smaller works in the salo...
Richards - Warblings at Dawn, Op.69
Просмотров 6 тыс.2 года назад
Richards's another composition, 'Warblings at Eve', is a relatively popular salon piece - however, its apparent companion piece seems to be less frequently recorded. These two pieces share many features, including similar melodies, 'bird chirp' embellishments, and arpeggiated melodic patterns. Thanks for listening! About the work: Henry Brinley Richards (1817-1885) was a Welsh composer who stud...
Ghys - Air du Roi Louis XIII (Amaryllis)
Просмотров 11 тыс.2 года назад
This piece was a popular item in piano tuition although it fell into obscurity in the twentieth century. The tune itself is also popular in Japan, where it is used as a popular ballet tune in schools as well as a rice cooker ringtone. Thanks for listening! About the work: Henri Ghys (1839-1908) was a French pianist, organist, composer and arranger of Belgian parentage, who is primarily known to...
Moszkowski - Mélodie, No.9 from '10 Pièces mignonnes', Op.77
Просмотров 18 тыс.2 года назад
I came across this little Moszkowski piece in an anthology of Romantic piano music. As someone who was previously only aware of his notoriously difficult Etudes de Virtuosité (Op.72), this piece is a pleasant surprise to me, and it really helped gaining more insight into Moszkowski as a prolific composer of utmost pianism. Thanks for listening! About the work: Moritz Moszkowski (1854-1925) was ...
Delbruck - Berceuse
Просмотров 20 тыс.2 года назад
A little gem from the collection 'Masterpieces of Piano Music'. If I remember correctly, it was used as a song in the rhythm game Piano Tiles 2, as well as an exam piece in China. Thanks for listening! About the work: Very little is known about the work or its composer, Georges Delbruck. According to IMSLP, the Berceuse was composed in 1893 or earlier - it was probably written originally for or...
Blake - Waves of the Ocean
Просмотров 6 тыс.2 года назад
I was surprised to see that there are no audio-synced sheet music video of this piece (which I thought to be rather popular) on RUclips, so I decided to make one myself. Thanks for listening! About the work: Charles D. Blake (1847-1903), a popular American composer, was born at Walpole, Mass., in 1847. His compositions number about three thousand, a large part of which are for the piano, but in...

      Many of the chords and harmonies remind of Wagner. Also the moments where there are straight eights alternating between triplets remind me of certain opera arias from him such as the buildup to the climax in Liebestod. Though I do see a lot of Schumann in here because if the r general “nostalgic” feeling lol

      @alexhoffmann3002 Most people never get past the first 20 exercises and think all of "Hanon" is like the 5-finger exercises -- the first 20. The rest of Hanon is pretty much a collection of standard scales, arpeggios, chords, etc. 1 - 20 the five-finger patterns "universally" known as "Hanon" 21 - 31 are "transcendent" which combine 4-note patterns into 8-note patterns; 32 - 37 involve thumb crossings; 38 is a scale prep; 39 is simply all the major and harmonic and melodic minor scales in parallel octaves; 40 is chromatic scales - parallel octaves, minor 3rds, minor and major 6ths; contrary beginning on the octave, minor, and major 3rd 41 is triad arpeggios -- all major and minor 42 is full diminished 7th arpeggios 43 is dominant 7th arpeggios (major dominant 7ths beginning on white notes, and C major major 7th) 44 repeated notes groups of 3 45 repeated notes groups of 2 46 trills 47 repeated notes groups of 4 48 wrist exercises - double 3rds and 6ths 49 stretches of a 6th between fingers 1 -4 and 2 - 5 50 legato double 3rds, scales in 3rds 51 octaves (double - in each hand) 52 common scales in double 3rds 53 scales in double octaves - major and harmonic minor 54 trills in double 3rds 55 "threefold" trills in 1st inversion triads - double 4ths (RH) with single trill in bass (LH) 56 scales in broken octaves - major and harmonic minor 57 broken arpeggios in double octaves - major and minor triads 58 double octaves held while playing inner notes of triads 59 trills in double 6ths 60 tremolo So I suppose that, technically speaking, whenever one is playing scales, arpeggios, double 3rds, 6ths, octaves, trills, etc., one can be said to be playing "Hanon"

    Very Wagnerian harmonies, especially the elements at 0:38 where the main melody is harmonized by adding another melody on top (the 3 measures of the lower staff of the screen). This gives a famous "third hand" effect.
