Schumann's Shimmering Supplement: Supplemental Variation IV (Symphonic Etudes) - Hidden Masterpieces

Supplemental Variation IV (Symphonic Etudes, Op. 13) by Robert Schumann The 5 Supplemental Variations to Schumann's 12 Symphonic Etudes (also called the Symphonic Studies), despite being published after the original 12, are of no lower quality. Variation IV in the supplemental set has a waltz-like rhythm, but shifts the voice timings - rotating which voice has the driving motion of the piece, c...

VI. Siren and VII. Conclusion (Sentiments, Op. 3) by Grant Dersom Leading one right into the other, these last two movements close Opus 3. The Siren is a highly contrapuntal, anxious pieces, with chromatic motion akin to a siren's blare. The Conclusion incorporates different themes from the rest of the Opus as a proper send-off: Red: I.

Reflection point - Dersom: IV. Mirror (Sentiments, Op. 3)
Просмотров 1978 месяцев назад
IV. Mirror (Sentiments, Op. 3) by Grant Dersom This is the centerpoint of the suite, and comprises two forms of reflection: - the concept of reflection, with harplike upward motion giving a sense of a surface, or maybe rippling water - a thematic reflection: we take the theme from I. Prelude, juxtapose it with the future theme from VII. Conclusion, and transition from I.'s theme to VII.'s theme...

A new journey - Dersom: I. Prelude (Sentiments, Op. 3)

I. Prelude (Sentiments, Op. 3) by Grant Dersom This is the first movement from Sentiments, Op. 3 (Suite in A minor) which I'll publish in the near future. The movement relies heavily on motific repetition, using the same theme over and over in different, but highly ornate ways. It sets the stage for the rather melancholic Suite, propping up a theme that will reappear later in the set. For new v...

A hidden gem? Glinka: Nocturne in E flat major (1828)
Ur music like chopin
hey how do you use that texture and particle effect with seemusic?
This was great, I especially liked the secondary theme. Keep up the good work!
0:31 I love this harpegio and this Harmony ❤❤❤
you should definetly compose a piano sonata!
Actually I have like 3 drafted! Sadly they've gone the way of this Allegro, and were put on the back burner because other compositions were closer to being ready for publication (Opuses 1-3). However, I currently have Sonata 1 slated as Opus 6, so I'd love to get it released in the near future
Yay more original music! I really like it, great job
👍
I really like it! The one thing I'd say is the space between Altered Main Theme and Combination of Themes seems a bit out of place? I think either a few transition notes or somehow removing the space would help immensely. Overall a great piece though!
Happy New Year! (And a late Merry Christmas!) A free PDF of this draft can be downloaded here: sonive.com/static/allegro%201.3-02.pdf Would you believe I wrote this over 5 years ago? After some tweaks, I'm hoping to publish it soon (though won't be in Opus 4 but likely a larger set). Also - I have another surprise in store related to digital sheet music, but I'll need just a little more time to get it ready…
Nice little lovely piece ❤
What an exquisite musical gem.! This is the first time that I’ve heard of Deodat DeSeverac, definitely deserves to be more widely known !🌹🌹🌹
Absolutely an exquisite musical gem, too beautiful to be hidden!❤❤❤
For this video I used a new piano library called Pianoteq! It uses a modeled piano vs the sampled piano I typically use. If you like it let me know!
I really like the schumann symphonic etudes, they are always a pleasure to listen to. Do you happen to know why the supplemental variations werent published until later? Did Schumann himself reject them or was it the publisher? I have never really looked into it. Great playing as always! ❤
Thank you! It appears to be that Schumann rejected them, but then Brahms restored them in a later 1890 edition according to Wikipedia (or 1873, according to a different source). Also, when searching around I found that Tchaikovsky orchestrated the last two non-posthumous etudes/the Finale! Here's one recording: ruclips.net/video/uOG_D2d7M3A/видео.html
Sorry didn't get a chopin feeling but a liszt one btw amazing work :]
Do umind to share the score?😅
Hey there! Please check out sonive.com/music/ It's a pretty rough draft, but at the bottom of the page I just added a PDF of the score
This piece's 4 measures sound very similiar to Schubert's Serenade, which was probably composed around a similiar time. Chopin probably thought that this piece would've sound too similiar to it, so he never releases it. Similiar to what he did with his Fantasie Impromptu.
I had a request if possible for the future, Joachim raff Romantic Etude op 8 no 1 and thank you
Just listened, that is a beautiful piece. Though some of the right hand stuff at the end seems a little difficult so may need to practice a bit haha Also just listened to No. 3 in that Opus, and it is short but very epic-sounding. I really need to listen to some more of his work
@@grantdersom yes he’s a underrated composer
@@grantdersom hopefully you can play no 1 with a little practice
@@grantdersom and thank you for your time
Beautiful
Did not expect Rameau, pleasent surprise! I havn't heard much by him, only some of his Pièces de Clavecin and those I have heard are wonderfull
Your work is very good, it was a great continuation of Chopin's work. I always wanted that someone with talent to continue one of these waltzes. Congratulations! Could you finish Chopin's lost waltz in C major from 1831?
Hey thanks! I'll look into that piece! By the way, in case you haven't seen it, a couple days ago another lost Chopin waltz was discovered: www.nytimes.com/video/arts/music/100000009784202/chopin-waltz-lang-lang.html
Actually, by chance are you referring to KK Vb/8? www.pianolibrary.org/composers/chopin/works-lost/#7 If so I actually have a draft of that one finished! Though it's kind of in rough shape, so I might want to work on it some more before doing an upload lol
definitely my favorite movement in op3!!!
listened to this maybe about 4 times now, lovely :)
update: lost count, probably listened to this more times than anyone else except the composer probably ;)
Opus 3 is fantastic! I really like how each feels connected yet distinct. Can you say anything about what type of pieces opus 4 will be? Etudes, sonata, something else?
Hey glad you like Op. 3! Actually some Etudes and a sonata are (mostly) drafted, but they will be a few opuses down the road - currently thinking like Op. 6-8 range. Here's a clue for Opus 4 (without spoiling the surprise haha): it will be a smaller Opus of a couple fast-moving pieces in "opposite" keys...
We got Op.3 before GTA 6 🔥 good work, you are very talented
When Op. 4?
I'm working on it right now actually! It's fully drafted, but there's still a good deal of refining to do. (I obsess a little over the details in the music, so apologies for the gap time between Opuses) Hopefully some uploads will be ready within a few months, but we'll see! As a clue to what Op. 4 will be: there are two pieces in the set, both are fairly dramatic, and the overall structure is the reverse of a certain Opus 111...
Hi everyone! The album and book both go live on November 8th! Sorry it's been taking so long - Finale (notation/music writing software) announced it was stopping development, so I spent a bit of time learning Dorico (newer notation software) and migrated all of Opus 3 to Dorico before publishing. If you like the new sheet music look, let me know!
This is actually his most played song without words on spotify.
Makes sense since it's the first result that comes out after writing Mendelssohn songs without words in the search bar.
average chopin pieces:
İt is like Chopin.
This is pretty cool!
You should check out Mykola Lyenko's barcarolle op 15!
Wow, the middle section on that has some cool harmonics! I'll make a note of it!
@grantdersom The harmonies in that mid section have made me feel things no other composer has before. Very interesting and beautiful piece of music. Unfortunately, it is virtually unknown with only 1 recording. I'm glad it was able to bring some inspiration to you :) Certainly has inspired me
En plus de variations sur le thème principal, on a l'impression d'entendre des variations sur des variations 😊
The beauty of your melodies never cease to amaze me
Absolutely wonderful. You are very talented. I love them all.
:)
Really great waltz by Liszt! And really well played, I feel like I can really hear the Chopin influence in this one
Thanks for sharing this wonderful piece!! What a wonderful interpretation as well. I hope to encounter more unknown pieces by composers.
I suggest Liszt Romance in E minor
Stanchinsky was one of the best and most potentional composers of early 20th century!
"Was this composed by chopin?" "Yesn't."
I don't mind if you don't want to share your secrets, but you please mind sharing specifically what virtual piano are you using? This sounds amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you! I use Garritan CFX: www.garritan.com/products/cfx-concert-grand-virtual-piano/ There's also the CFX Lite, which honestly sounds about the same and is far less pricey.
Where is the sheet music ?? I want to play it please😢❤ Marvelous
Hey, thank you! Sorry it's been awhile - please check out sonive.com/music/ It's a pretty rough draft, but at the bottom of the page I just added a PDF of the score
I love the hidden masterpieces series! Love finding new pieces I haven’t heard before
How about Glinka's Mazurka in C minor for the next upload?
Ooh interesting, I'll check out that piece!
Hi everyone! This upload is part of a new-ish series called Hidden Masterpieces - discovering excellent but little-known pieces. If you'd like to hear more, the playlist is here: ruclips.net/p/PLd24CIFAHXuCUjADnTo62uX6g7X_QQ-cd&si=mF0XluFeOBLB-iM2
