The impression of reading Alice in Wonderland / On the Other Side of the Mirror (Lewis Caroll) with my ears... Same perceptions, same understandings and encodings ... With great and rare intelligence, each listening is a constantly renewed state of fullness
Beautiful Preludes, reminescent of Chopin, Rachmaninov and with an evident slavic feeling at their core. Marvellous number 2 , in particular, with its dotted rhythm and elegiac character, while number three has something in common with same Author's Eros op 24 n 3. Thanks a lot, very good choice!
All composers got inspired by other composers. Chopin wrote many of his works depending on other composers’ models, like his etude op 25 no 5 in e minor is completely inspired by etude op 125 in e minor by Hummel. And many others..
Been listening this on repeat for the last few days, amazing work! Thanks for sharing!
I'm grateful that Mr. Somero has preformed so many of these Bortkiewicz pieces.
Thank You!!
@@JouniSomeroMusic You are an awesome pianist!!
@@none5020 Thank You!😊
Absolutely amazing set of preludes - thank you so much for sharing! 🙏
No. 4 (5:27) is so heavenly beautiful. It's the closest thing to perfection I know.
5:46 very similar to scriabin fantasy sonata in piu vivo section . He copied so much from scriabin and Chopin
Un ottima e interessantissima presentazione.Mi piace Bortkiewicz e questo ,come altri, è un pregevole inserimento.Bravo.
Thank you very much for sharing . 💙🌷🌷🌷🎹🎵 (Holland)
If Scriabin ever listened to the last Prelude here, he would have definitely been wondering "When the fuck did I write this???"
In his F# major Sonata :D
Of couse, it is literally Scriabin's style and harmony!!
No he wouldn't, he would never write garbage.
@@Whatismusic123 Now the world knows you dislike Bortkiewicz
@@Whatismusic123 Just as good as Scriabin. Sometimes better...

Sounded like Bortkiewicz composed these pieces after playing a lot of Scriabin!

Борткевич, спасибо тебе большое за такие шедевры
01:33 that rhythm motif is same to Chopin and Scriabins prelude or etude.
Is inspiration came from Chopin too but he did nothing very unique like Scriabin
@@Nonononono213 The prelude number 7 is somehow reminiscent of what Scriabin could have done.
@@j.thomas1420 I agree

Definitely more reminiscent of Scriabin than Rachmaninov!
@@marsaeolus9248 I agree! In no.4 and 7 especially.
Number 6 is the most beautiful of opus 40. Number 1 is like an advanced etude, but beautiful as well
No. 4 is a mix between Scriabin's etudes op. 8 no. 12, and op. 42 no. 4.
4:15 Loool, this prelude (3rd in a row) is very similar to his Mazurka op 64. No. 2 ! Almost the same harmony !)
0:09 if this is Allegretto, what's Presto then?

Heck of a way to begin a piece.
Drunk Chopin
Wow doesn't no.1 sound like it's straight out of Chopin's Op.25? Wow
❤
Wow doesn't no.1 sound like it's straight out of Chopin's Op.25 or 28?

I love the harmonic language but the octaves become too over-bearing
no.5 you mean?
Can this guy write anything fucking easy lmao

Thank I play many of these works. I’m sick of Chopin.
N 2 molto simile a molti preludi lenti di scriabin
