Actually, everything she wrote fits pretty comfortably in the hands (even though it is highly technical) like much of Chopin and Moszkowski. You can tell she had a great understanding of the economy of the instrument
Great piece, very convincingly played. Thanks, Pentameron, and thanks Joanne Polk for bringing many undeservedly obscure pieces (like this, and Louis Farrenc's work) to our attention.
For me it is a beautiful piece nevertheless, beyond the influences...it is possibile recognize the typical creativity of Chaminade for melodie and themes.
Many composer did Fugue...it is a form...not belongs to Bach ! even he wrote this form for the first time..I doesn't know ...but it has no importance...

Very influenced by Schumann the brillant main theme lacks a very convincing development - I have the feeling as she was seen as Salon composer she wanted to compose something 'serious'. The last movement for example is of similar style to her Toccata. Chopins Piano Sonata 1, 5th Movement, is more convincing in comparison. All in all beautiful composition
Well, maybe Schumann was influenced by hers. Remember that female composers were disadvantaged and therefore not very well-known. Some of them had to publish under their brother's name, like Mendelssohn's sister.
@@hagenseah4306 doesnt mean he couldn't get influenced by her, tho. They probably influenced each other, just like the rest of the romanticism composers, I guess.

0:00 - I. Allegro appassionato
6:46 - II. Andante
13:49 - III. Allegro
She wrote from the heart. This music is easy on the ears and hard on the hands. Brings me joy to listen to this.

Superb! Thank you!
You're welcome, and thanks for watching!

She had a prismatic finesse and probing sensibility that the other 19th century master composers seemed to lack.
Why dont pkay this beautifull music more often in concert halls?
She later put the Finale as an Etude, op. 35 no. 4
Прекрасно❤
Chaminade is the best 🔥😍
Too short....I want more. Particularly the last movement.
1:17
But 3 part concert etude no 4 “Apassionate”
Last movement is more difficult than the rest of the sonata...
1:04 sounds like bach tho
I said the same thing when I first heard it too. Lol
It’s a fugue
Except it has parallel fifths in the fugal entry

Hello! I would like to make a big video about Cécile Chaminade and use your recording. Is it posible?

Now that you mentioned it, no wonder I felt something was missing as I first listened to this sonata. Thanks for watching!

tho tho dang Schumann was born before chaminade

@@marcosorrentiakaditirambo9306 Why are you talking about stuff you have no idea? Chaminade was born one year AFTER Schumann died
