Nikolai Kapustin
Piano Sonata No 1, Op 39, Sonata-Fantasy
1 Vivace
2 Largo
3 Scherzo
4 Allegro molto
Nikolai Kapustin, piano
If I hear right:
0:00 1.Vivace -
3:27 2. Largo
8:14 3. Scherzo
11:16 4. Allegro molto
Love the whole sonata, but the 4th movement is particularly mind-blowing!
2:22 OMG THIS MUST BE ONE OF THE MOST INCREDIBLE THING THAT I EVER HEARD
Kapustin's beautiful climaxes of his music are like bright pearls on an infinite beach with muddy sand. If you listen those climaxes of his music, you will never forget them. And after you find those pearls, you will visit the infinite beach again and again. You will never forget those songs.
This one is so beautiful, especially the fourth movement. It's all so natural and full of life
Kapustin's style is indirectly linked to Scriabin. His place in musical history is that through direct interaction with jazz harmony he has updated and rescued romanticism which is actually the reverse of what the word romantic implies. The real goal of romanticism in art is to use fictional vehicles to express real human emotions. Now, will there be sufficient pianistic talent to take these pieces and make them their own? We see some of this already. It's a good sign.
This is probably my favorite piano sonata. I've loved the Chopin sonata 2 the most for a long long time, but this is just so rich and powerful, fun and exciting...words cant describe the beauty and transcendence of this music
I have your profile picture too! :D
haha, then you have to hear kapustin 2
@@AsrielKujo hell yeh
Wow that's a big call
@@CI-ym5hr i mean, it's a big call considering chopin better than Kapustin
This is the first time I've really enjoyed listening to a Kapustin sonata. I always find myself enjoying pieces more when played by the composer.
16:54 I love this
For me he's the best jazz composer as the music is sexy,elegant and rhythmical that one never gets tired of listening😃😉🎹
Lebhafte Aufführung dieses fantastischen Klaviersonate im polyrhythmischen Tempo mit kräftigem Anschlag und völlig effektiver Dynamik. Echt Gänsehaut!
I love this piece, and Kapustin plays it incredibly well. Personally, I prefer Steven Osborne's recording on Hyperion: It's equally virtuosic - and simply more beautiful, by turns ebullient, relaxed, witty and elegant. Kapustin's playing is of course very "Russian school," and it has something percussive and relentless about it that I find a bit off-putting and ultimately very tiring.
But the guy's a creative genius, no doubt about it, and his own playing sets standards that will remain awfully hard for anyone else to reach.
Viva Kapustin!
+tedgangersongs I enjoy reading your sophisticated critique and I find the division very stunning you make between the composer and the performing composer!
Exactly my feeling about Kapustin's playing, too. I'd give anything to be able to play like that, and then if I could, I'd do it differently....
I have both recordings too and share your preference. It's difficult to compare though, because the sound engineer and piano/acoustic are not comparable. I get the feeling in this version the microphones were too close. Osborne also benefits from a warmer acoustic and slightly less bright piano.
Personally, I generally prefer Kapustin's recordings of his own works: there's just something so raw and punchy and crisp about them that really suits the jazzy influence behind them.
Dave Conway Yes, your right of course, his must be the definitive performances, just wish they were better recorded.
absolutely the greatest living composer.
100% agreed
@@AsrielKujo Unfortunately, he passed last July. Still the greatest of our time nonetheless.
@@godzillakhar2771 yes, he will always be alive in his music, which speaks his emotions
@@teacoffee42 that's great, thanks for the suggestion! didn't know him
Damn, be sleeping on Penderecki
Remarkable! Why haven't I heard of this guy before?
Very powerful!!
最高ー!
現代曲なんぞよりこっちのほうが生理的に気持ちいい
5:14 Stravinsky lick
16:55 My favourite
You mean from the famous bassoon solo at the beginning of the rite of spring?
@@sebastian-benedictflore its a russian song..perhaps stravinsky stole it :)
@@glenngulda I'm aware. I think it's specifically from present day Ukraine.
Tea for two
東京のような都会のビルの展望レストランにいる気分
I feel like 5:14 is a reference to something but I can't remember.
Kapustin op 41 variation
Or Rite of Spring opening bassoon theme -- or more originally, some Lithuanian folk song
I guess 5:14 sounds like this famous theme of Igor Stravinsky.
it is opening theme from rite of spring :D
@@counterpoints_ Which one, there are way too many
