The '12 Virtuoso Studies' is a set of piano studies written by American composer Edward MacDowell. This is a follow up to MacDowell's Op. 39 Studies, though these are more difficult to tackle. These are written in more European style studies rather than his earlier studies.
Performer: James Barbagallo

Is always an inexplicable feeling discovering a great composer! Thank you for providing us this amazing content!
I didn't know these studies nor the composer. This Channel is very great, Bravo for this work.
his 2nd piano concerto (D minor) has long been one of my favourite romantic works. I highly recommend it. it has a bit of a "Grieg concerto" feel to it.
@@MREmusique indeed it is very nice, thanks !
You hadn't heard "To a Wild Rose" before?
Before now I had only ever known one piece of music by this composer, and that is "To A Wild Rose" and the only reason I know it is because it is in a sheet music book I have and have played it before.
Now I wish I'd looked more into this composer way back when. Glad to find this. Wonderful music.
This music is as wonderfully intricate and sublime as any composed by the Romantic masters. And it's here brought to life by the incomparable mastery of James Barbagallo --- a unique and gifted talent departed way too soon.
finally a sheet music video of these!!! been waiting for ages!
James Barbagallo was a Pianistic genius.....he was a Colleague Of Mine In Juilliard During the 1970s . He was an Incredibly nice Person .
I like how in the 3rd study the key signature is merely a suggestion
...these are absolute hidden gems.

Love it ❤❤❤❤❤❤
the impromptu quite reminds me of the flight of the bumblee !
Un grand compositeur "Listzien" !
it's a shame more pianists don't record these. I've known this recording for many years, the reverb still doesn't sit right with me, but I feel at least the etudes and the two last sonatas deserve some more love from modern artists
You can tell it was written by an American. It actually sounds very American tbh.
Could you please elaborate on what makes it sound American?
It’s fair to say that MacDowell also had European musical influences. He studied at the Paris Conservatory and Hoch Conservatory in Germany where he lived, performed and taught for some years until moving back to America.
It really does.
I feel some Rachmaninoff and Prokofiev in no.1 and 12 i like it !
...I also feel some Chopin in a few.
what a genius !!
I wonder if "Bluette" may have been influenced by the works of Gottschalk.
The date of composition would be helpful.
I could only find the year it was published (1894).
le début de la n°4 c'est l'île joyeuse de Debussy
It’s just a trill
Interesting
nice
Thank you for the upload. It's interesting to learn about these pieces. However, my honest opinion is that these are pretty pointless pieces musically, and technically (yes, of course they are difficult) they do not seem to contribute anything in the form of new ways of training for new techniques. It's just a lot of fast notes. On the whole they feel like a collection of pieces that are called "studies" because they aren't good enough to be given more ambitious titles. This is the opposite to great composers who euphemistically call their fine compositions "studies" or some other mundane titles.
I can very much agree with your statement. Most of these studies aren't really on technique unlike Op. 39 (in which the score states the technique). I'd say MacDowell composed these pieces for showing off at the concert stage. I find it odd that he wrote more virtuosic piano works even though he very much stated he didn't like difficult music. He actually didn't like his Op. 36 Etude de concert. Though America at the time wanted performers to show off their virtuosity. The title is a bit overdone yes, likely to get people interested in the music with "Virtuoso" in the title.
