Marc-André Hamelin - Theme and variations 'Cathy's Variations' (2007) [Score-Video]

[@wesleytan1850]

This is a really good set of variations. Love the neo-romantic (??) sound.

[@bhtas3006]

Immediately stopped what I was doing when I heard the 3rd var, amazing

[@tarikeld11]

Ha, I love how the 3rd variation is based on a variation from Beethoven's Sonata No. 30 :)

[@UtsyoChakraborty]

The Envoi has such lovely Richard Strauss vibes.

[@CatkhosruShapurrjiFurabji]

True

[@madripoor6652]

Being more familiar with his virtuoso production, I did not, in all honesty, think that Hamelin was capable of such musicality: boooy was I wrong.

Jazzy romantic sound

[@tinobuozzi4975]

una perla.....

[@CatkhosruShapurrjiFurabji]

The third variation is probably another homage to Beethoven's op.109...(the other one being the 3rd Paganini variation of his). This piece features the 4th variation of Op.109's final movement while the latter does the 3rd variation.

[@CatkhosruShapurrjiFurabji]

Wait never mind, the score says 'after L.v.B.'. At least I'm just happy to have figured out what piece it was haha.

[@KinkyLettuce]
