Why this mans work is not on every symphonic orchestra's schedule is beyond me. It's a wonderful mixture of jazz, romantic, classical etc; that has it's own unique sound
Because mediocrity and show-off are the prevailing values. If you are a pianist, you will know that this composer requires the highest possible technique, which, professionally speaking, won't raise the contract's fees!
@@Nooticus Kapustin's zodiac sign is Scorpio-Sagittarius Cusp, which definitely explains why so many of his pieces sound so free, adventurous, outgoing, and energetic.
If you like this, take a listen to Kapustin's Second and Fourth piano concertos, as well as his 8 concert etudes. Kapustin is a fantastic composer, and his list of works is rather nice.
Love Kapustin! Too bad,,I discovered his music many years after leaving Moscow, where I grew up in times , when he was big. If I knew better I would hear him in Moscow, where he performed quite often. Ooh, if only…. My favorite performer of Kapustin is Frank Dupree with his trio. Not only musical and technical perfection, but very entertaining.

@@chungyuetien2461 not quite sure about that but sure :) whatever floats you boat!
if u cant decide between classical and jazz, Kapustin has you covered. Best piece> sonata1
nah - best piece = etude in minor seconds
This is one of my favorite pieces of music these days

He was like the Soviet version of George Gershwin.
No comparison possible. Gershwin being too easy and too soft...
Russian Legend
music is a brain teaser
no score?
I just wanted to have the whole Sinfonietta in one video (with good quality audio)

@@stonefireice6058 Kapustin plays his own pieces best, many come up short.
