Sergei Lyapunov - Transcendental Étude Op. 11, No. 11 "Dance of the Sylphs" (Noack)

Performed by Florian Noack (2021): • 12 Études d'exécution ...
"Ronde des sylphes" was the 11th etude written in Sergei Lyapunov's set of 12 Transcendental Ttudes. It translates to "Dance of the sylphs" and was written in the key of G major. This piece was presumably inspired by Franz Liszt's "Feux Follets," which comes from his set of transcendental etudes of which this set was continuation.
Wikipedia continuation:
The 12 Etudes d’exécution transcendante[1] (English: 12 Etudes of Transcendental Execution), Op.11, was a series of 12 etudes written from 1897 to 1905 by Sergei Lyapunov, and served as the posthumous continuation of Franz Liszt's uncompleted work Transcendental Études, having only the first 12 finished before his death in 1886. The work is also dedicated to Liszt, with the twelfth etude being named after the composer as well. Inspired by one of his three teachers during his time at Moscow Conservatory Karl Klindworth, a former student of Liszt, along with being heavily influenced and artistically guided by Mily Balakirev, the main ideologue of The Five, these Etudes use the full gamut of Nationalist techniques: From folk-songs and church bells, to Caucasian melodies and sumptuous melodicism.[2]

Feux Folets de Liszt resonnant dans les steppes Russes... pas mal !👍🙏

Although this song has really difficult techniques, it is musically very beautiful.

Just like 12th etude

[@j.thomas1420]

Jolie étude, mais avec une structure et des idées trop lourdement inspirées de Feux Follets, dommage qu'il n'y ait pas de réel climax.

I was waiting for a good recording of these etudes, could this be it? I really don't think Shcherbakov does them justice, but this is great, nimble and sparkly

[@Xyriak]

I agree. I like the power that Scherbakov puts into these etudes, but Noack's clarity is astounding.
