    this piece is a roller coaster! this piece has the texture and sonority as the ocean. kinda like the first piece of gaspard the nuit. when the piece starts, we are calmly swimming at the surface of the ocean. Then at 0:30 something happens. the texture changes as we are sinking into deeper water. simply confused and numb to whats happening. then at 0:50 when we start to hear some water creatures giggle as we sink deeper. the melody is mainly in the left hand and i believe it is our protagonist starting to recognize what is happening and is having a monologue. at 1:11 the protagonist slowly realizes what is is happening and starts having a dialogue, we as the fast scale and the sixteenth tremolo thing as the creatures responding with giggling. Then the bass drops 1:22 as our protagonist is shocked at what is happening and is overwhelmed with agony. it´s a storm under water, vortex like, with the creatures now laughing and the same melody as before, now stronger than ever. at 1:42 the texture changes from agony to a sense of clarity as the protagonist takes evasive action and tries to escape. The texture feels more fluid now. the melody soon becomes unbearable and then at 1:58 we get a sense of relief now that the protagonist is exhausted from running (underwater running? = mega slow). 2:08 we are no longer able to escape as the creatures have rendered me immobile and i am in a climax of pain and suffering. 2:23 we are now left alone, stranded on the bottom of the ocean staring at the surface as the protagonist accepts his fate. a sense of tranquility washes over you... I don´t know why i decided to write this. It is past my bedtime... I mainly wrote in third person however, that part 2:08 when i wrote about pain and suffering i switched to the first person. I did not realize this until i read it. Maybe since i´m an edgy teenager. bye

    Hi! So sorry for the uploading delay, the serial procrastinator in me has won this time. Hope it was worth the wait tho! I'm also postponing my comment for it, so let's refer to Wikipedia :P "The Precipitato movement from Prokofiev's 7th sonata, written in 1942, once described as "an explosive burst of rock 'n' roll with a chromatic edge", is a toccata in relentless septuple time which boldly affirms the key of the sonata through a more diatonic harmonic language than found in the first movement. This is obvious from the very beginning, with simple B♭ major triads repeated over and over again. Despite a wide range of performance tempos chosen by different pianists, the effect is nevertheless imposing and exciting. The toccata culminates into a furious recapitulation of the main theme, taxing all ten fingers to the utmost, until the piece finally ends triumphantly in a thundering cascade of octaves". and listener, sorry for the imprecisions - i didnt wanna trade my sanity to get a perfect recording ^_^;;;

    The Crave is arguably the _summa_ of the early 20's jazz piano music, composed by none other than the "Inventor of Jazz" (according to himself :P), Ferdinand "Jelly Roll" Morton - a super eccentric personality, as you may have guessed. A catchy tune accompanied by Spanishy rhythms: the influence of latin music is clear, taking the form of a Tango with innumerable syncopes - this being a fundamental trait of jazz practice. In endeavouring its performance, I couldn't refrain myself from adding some improvisatory spicing (in the restatement of the A section), hoping to have somehow maintained a consistency in style. Side note: also make sure to check out the amazing movie "The Legend of 1900" by Giuseppe Tornatore (based on a novel by Alessandro Baricco), which features this piece in a piano dueling scene.

    Hey, it's Propp! First published in 1738 as part of the _"Essercizi per Gravicembalo"_ collection, the Sonata K1 in D minor (Allegro) is a two-voice invention of utmost _tournure_ and craftsmanship, in _defiance_ of its simplicity. A strict binary form encompasses the melodic material, and as in most Scarlatti sonatas, divides the piece into two complementary sections, the former ending with the dominant (0:22), and the latter re-establishing the tonic key (1:19). Scarlatti was a real master of the _gravicembalo_ and had a plethora of expedients at hand: it suffices noting the unique effect obtained by rapid ascending thirds e.g. at (0:10). The _labor limae_ becomes even more indubitable when one considers the perspicacy with which, in the second section, the _Maestro_ achieves a nontrivial return to the key of D minor: after restating one of the themes in the relative major key (also notice the absolutely _avant garde_ exploit of the beautiful gmin7 chord) (0:55), the progression F-C-g-d-a-E-A at (0:58), manages, in just 3 measures, to bring back the dominant tonality, ready for the real _Spannung_ of the invention. _Climax_ which occurs at (1:03), during which I hazarded a _rubato,_ hopefully without falling into abuse. As always, with this recording I confide upon having reached an at least acceptable interpretation ^_^.

    "And if we look at the works of J.S. Bach - a benevolent god to which all musicians should offer a prayer to defend themselves against mediocrity - on each page we discover things which we thought were born only yesterday, from delightful arabesques to an overflowing of religious feeling greater than anything we have since discovered. And in his works we will search in vain for anything the least lacking in good taste." This is how the French composer Claude Debussy (1862-1918) refers to Bach. Only the uninitiated can see this description as an overstatement: once you delve in Bach's music, you can only "listen, play, love, revere - and keep your trap shut" - as Einstein famously said. A continuous strive for perfection in form, order (i.e. κόσμος), and plain beauty is what characterizes every work of the Cantor, literally making it of cosmological _grandeur._ The English Suites are no exception: a monumental, incomparable, sublime collection of pieces of unimaginable invention and brilliance. Playing even just one movement from the no. 2 turned out to be an insurmountable challenge for me, as I'd argue their difficulty is superior to e.g. a Chopin étude: an almost inhuman degree of _ne plus ultra_ and precision is imperative for their correct performance. Having with all probability failed in this endeavour, I'm only contenting myself of playing it as a _divertissement,_ in the hopes that it acts as an inspiration to some of you ^_^
