Sergei Rachmaninov - 4 Pieces (audio + sheet music)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 окт 2024
- The Four Pieces of 1887 are perhaps Rachmaninoff's first comprehensive works. Each has a clear aim and method to attain it, and all unfold with a fluency significantly more advanced than that shown in the previous nocturnes. The opening Romance, in F-sharp minor, harks back to Frédéric Chopin's tenderness. The E-flat minor Prelude is an unremarkable but well-thought out piece. The third, a Mélodie in E major, is modestly expressive, but the Gavotte in D major is, although repetitive, the most energetic and vigorous piece. These were published posthumously in Moscow in 1948, without an opus number.

There are 2 types of people:
1. Oh Rachmaninoff is so beautiful
2. All Star invented by Rachmaninoff
i am both
ermmm i’m the 3rd one i guess
@@CongoBongoBongo me too lol
3rd: Who is Rachmaninoff?
@@juicedelemonu dont know Rachmaninoff??
I can not express how much I love Rachmaninoff’s music. Oh, wait. Yes I can.
On a piano.
Well I sure can't either way
@@BarackObamaJedi this hit hard yet true
I like that you are discovering unknown pieces!! thanks for your work!!!
You're most welcome, my friend.
These are not so unknown, I have them on CDs from Naxos - Rachmaninov is so famous so he does not really have many really unknown pieces. Fragments maybe one of the lesser known pieces.
1887, soit, Sergueï avait 14 ans lorsqu'il a composé ces pièces. Là, on ne peut nier qu'il y a du génie.
He composed this at my age, 14 years old. I don't know what to say, at this moment, I should leave composition.
Please don't. 😭
He was one in history
@@thenameisgsarcihey I didn't leave composition, I'm now at 19 composing for orchestras and ensambles 😎

Hoy estoy descubriendo estas piezas maravillosas. Se me hace un estilo Scriabin... me encanta!!! Gracias por compartir!
Sin duda los mejores compositores postrománticos para piano(pese al posterior estilo de Scriabin, muy interesante también)
Ah this is fantastic. I'm making a list of Rach's work, and this helped so much. That gavotte is so creative.
I love how in the first one the performer reserves the subito forte and in the second one the first thirds that sound mayor and then the start of the left hand introducing a minor theme
The prelude sounds like a combination of his Prelude op. 23 no. 9 and his Etude Tableau Op. 39 no.5
Love the Gavotte!
Melody (No.3) is beautiful
The Gavotte almost sounds Ravelian at some parts, especially 12:37 to 12:52, and 13:12 to 13:21.
Interesting compositions though! You can clearly hear Chopin's influences in the Romance, but also serious hints of Rachmaninov's own sound which still has to mature at this point.
I'll agree with that. :)
My pleasure.
Thanks for the effort ou put into these clips!
Yeah. :D
I thought the exact same thing! I was looking for some comment like yours and here it is^^
The use of 9ths and extended tonal chords contribute to this effect. I certainly wouldn't say the writing and texture resembles it though...
The Prelude sounds like it could have been one of Mendelssohn's Lieder Ohne Worte
Im definitely going to learn the Romance because it really caught my eye
did you mastered it ? :)
Exuberant music played brilliantly.
A treasure of Rachmaninoff young and virile.
Thank you for making it available.
Thank you for introducing me to repertoire I did not know 😁
From 1:50 to about 2:07 is pure Chopin-esque writing. He breaks rather abruptly from it in 2:08 onwards, which sounds more a harmonic development you'd expect from a Russian composer.
The second piece has the look of those Schubert-Liszt transcriptions of Schubert's song cycles.
Rachmaninov is better than Chopin and Liszt
Me encanta esta obra. Me parece una buena onda de 1887

0:57 So beautiful
0:58 damn that's one of the best things I've ever listened to
rachmaninoff forever in my heart :
Невероятная музыка
1:56 sounds like Chopin
Agree! Sounds like that G-major nocturne "slowed down"
Also sounds like the barcarolle in f-sharp major
Thanks for uploading!
I love his works so much!!!!
End of the last piece: measure before last, third beat. I hear a G where an A is written in the soprano.
Alexis Champsaur Hahah woah, nice catch dude!
Does Franke simply make a mistake at 2:17 with the A-natural rather than A-Sharp in the melody, or is there another copy of these pieces?
Oh, I just noticed that. Hmmm, performer's discretion, I'll dare to say.
+Gwilym Price Good point, it was not so easy to point it out! Bravi!! :)
+Serge Bayet I'd heard a different interpretation (Idel Biret's) which had the A-Sharp. Interestingly, she also plays G instead of A at 13:33 so I'm convinced there must be at least two different versions of the score.
and I think he plays E# instead of E in 10:26
A-natural at 2:17 is in fact a misreading by Franke. In 13:33 Sikorski's authoritative edition has a G and records no variants, so Franke and Biret are right. 10:26 is a doubtful case: Rachmaninov did not write any accidentals after the first beat, so both E-natural and E-sharp could have been meant for the accompanying chords. The 1948 edition used in the video opts for the former and clarifies adding a natural; Sikorski 1992 adds sharps to all chords (correctly, I think: Rachmaninov would not have forgotten the naturals if he had aimed purposefully at a dissonance; but he may easily have forgotten the sharps if the same harmony was valid for the whole bar). If I am not wrong, Franke plays E-sharp in the right, E-natural in the left hand, which is inconsistent.
Are you sure this is the easiest that he composed? OMG
Someone know where I can buy this sheetmusic?
imslp.org/wiki/4_Pieces_(Rachmaninoff%2C_Sergei)
You should be able to get them all for free from here my friend (:
@@joravadamee6646 Thanks. Do you know a websites where I can buy this?
@@Inubiz use the link given above.
Where can I buy these sheet music? Impossible to find.
The description says that the scores are available on imslp. Go on imslp.org and see what you find
yes, available on IMSLP as individual works.
Étonnant La bécarre joué à 8 mesures avant la fin du premier morceau alors qu'il est écrit La dièse. Mais ce n'est musicalement pas vilain, juste une autre version.
Does anyone knows in which way is pedal used in romance? it isn t written in the score
Marijan Čavar in the recording i would say is normaly every compas, but it also depends on the piano, so i recomend to add the pedal by ear
I prefer to use my right foot.
Who's the pianist?
When you consider that S. R. was just a kid, literally........pretty darn good! Would I buy it for the collection? No.
It's interesting to gauge where the various great composers were in their musical development in their youth. Mozart and Mendelssohn were light years ahead at the same age, but like the saying goes . . . it doesn't really matter where you start, it matters where you end up. Rachmaninov ended up bequeathing to the world some brilliant works.
So quintessentially Russian, Russian in a way that few other than Rachmaninoff can express.
Prelude is not at the first??
Since these compositions are from the romantic era, it doesn't matter if the prelude is at first or at the end. in baroque preludes would take places at the beginning of a piece, mostly fugues, and were shorter pieces to introduce the fugue. Here in romanticism preludes are individual and longer pieces.
Isaac Calcaño Yeah, I understand now. It was like my first time to see a prelude being the second piece of a suite
His Morceaux Op. 3 also has a prelude as the second piece.
thenameisgsarci oh yeah! I was forgetting about that..
👍👍👍
the first is dark
wtf lmao why the notation in 1st piece looks almost like mine, anyways its a nice piece
I didn't knew Rachmaninov wrote anything in 5/4. Okay, Isle of Dead was 5/8. But this Gavotte is funny.
16 people are deaf it seems...
Who is playing? Thank you.
TiticatFollies Read the first freaking seconds of the video
Back when Rachmaninoff didn't write cheesy music
What? Did you drink stupid juice?
great pieces, but badly played. He makes too many hesitations rather than going for the big phrase.
I disagree. It's late romantic music and should breathe as he does. Nobody wants to hear metronomic playing.
Y'all, I know you love to praise your favourite composers, and I know rachmaninoff often deserves it, but these pieces are straight up garbage.
