    If you like this, give a listen to Reubke's Sonata on the 94th Psalm in C minor (1857) for organ. Reubke is a truly outstanding composer.

    I love this sonata! Especially the Allegro assai (20:35)... One of Hexameron's uploads I always went back to.
    Reubke's early death was definitely a terrible loss

    I return to this piece every now and then. It is worth getting to know it deeply, as I did when I listened to it obsessively when I first discovered it. Someone I thought could have altered the history of music, but there’s nothing to be done about that, and I like what came after anyway.

    • @derby2510

      I understand his very existence on the scene would have altered musical history, but I mean in a major way, as in someone who might have competed with Brahms on an instrumental basis.

    an incredible work, one of my secret favourites in the literature!
    ...this recording, though, seems a bit flat to me. I'm a pianist myself (not quite at this level), but it just feels like much of the emotion, especially in the more rigorous sections, is held back. I just feel that for Romantic works, control can give way to a bit of spontaneity. The more lyrical sections are lovely, however!

    The last bar has "Grave" with "fff". I may be just deaf, but from the beginning through the end, the emotion is so peaked out with this "Grave" thing for 29 min. Maybe I just don't share this dramatic level of emotion of this tune. I suppose this resonated in the 19th century in Europe.

    150 years before the Beatles there were another Fab Four, Mendelssohn, Chopin, Schumann and Liszt and then there were some contemporaries who tried to put in edgewise much virtuoso ado about nothing. Unfortunately for Fred and Julius the symphony for Isoniazid, Rifampicin, Pyrazinamide, Ethambutol and Nursestra was composed only 100+ years later.

    I have the impression that young Reubke tried to load his sonata with a Lisztian amount of pianism and succeeded mightily. Unfortunately, the work lacks the kind of dramatic structure that always makes Beethoven sonatas so interesting. I will assume that, had he lived past 24, he would have developed into a better, more mature composer. This work has all the emotional impact of fireworks--impressive at the moment and then utterly forgettable on the way home.

    • @erika6651
      @erika6651 3 года назад +3

      6 minutes into it the structure feels too amorphous, there is no memorable melodic content. A few interesting New German School chords and transitions, but mostly empty virtuosity and substandard Listz like motifs. It is unfortunate he passed at 24, it is possible his compositions may have improved if he lived into maturity.

    • @joshyman221
      @joshyman221 2 года назад

      Great way to put it. At the start I was grasped. The introduction is wondeful, and presents a theme that feels like it will be developed into something but never comes. It feels similar actually to chopins 1st sonata. Considering he wrote that at a young age, and comparing it to his later 2nd and 3rd, it’s definitely a shame that Reubke didn’t longer.

I changed my mind a few years back and find myself humming themes from the first and third movements now from time to time!

    I'm not a big fan of Liszt, but I love some of his shorter, less bombastic pieces. This Reubke sonata, like Liszt's, contains beautiful passages woven in between the pathos (or bathos) that Liszt enjoyed using in his music. If Reubke had composed this without the opening Lisztian bravura/bombast, it would be more interesting. Even Horowitz once stated in an interview that pianists should be careful when looking into Liszt's works for something to play because, according to Horowitz, there is much that is of an "inferior" quality.

      I came up with a counter to that sort of thought though. If time travel were invented, it would eventually get out, and the only way to fix the problem, would to be to go back and stop the invention. So once a machine was built, the user would have to be on guard for people from the future out to shut them down.
