Cécile Chaminade - Arabesque No.1, Op.61
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2018
- This piece composed in 1892.
I don't know, it is a great piece, but it feels a bit schizophrenic to me? :D The rhythms are folkloristic, the harmonic progressions comprehensible, and all in all there is an interesting structure. Of course this is not a playing short time after first sight, it is a difficult piece ; I knew this for some years already but today by chance I figured out that there was no score video on RUclips so,... yeah you know.
If you can, I would very much appreciate it if you donate any amount for my work in this channel:)

Beautiful!
My grandfather, the musician Alberto Williams assisted in London 1890-1900 to a concert by Cécile Chaminade and wrote a protofeminist article in a journal of Bs.As. about it, praising enormously this great pianist and composer .
No sabía eso de Alberto Williams !!
Great! Can we read that article?
Please share the article!!!
this piece is unique. It has elements of Arabian, 20th Century, Beethoven, Chopin, Liszt! Really amazing
The inflection/color change in the arpeggio at 2:52 is so beautiful. I'm touched!
La parte iniziale è fiabesca , un tema stupendo
That main recurring part sounds so epic. This piece feels so confused, like it goes from sounding like the heros final stand to completely resolved in 5 seconds over and over again
Wonderful. I discovered this French female composer (whom I knew only by name) thanks to her Concertino for the flute, which I heard this morning on (French) Radio Classique.
Chaminade songs are great. But this piece is so cool, thanks for uploading this!
Those low notes sound so rich!
My god such a well written piece i keep listening to
It's really nice
Yeah i'm getting angry, I spent 8 years studying music in university, trying to get into classical / romantic etc since I came from a completely different background... And no teacher ever mentioned the works of Chaminade. This speaks to me so much more than anything Chopin ever wrote, that recurring theme is insane and the whole thing is a rollercoaster.
Interesting story... her music is really diverse, I am trying to play and record most of it!
@@PianoScoreVids thanks a lot for that, seriously.
Maybe as you say ...you did not really get into the classical/romantic music so you did not get to Chopin.Just maybe.Possibly:-).
@@cooltrades7469 I... did get into that music, this is literally what I'm saying, I spent 8 years studying it.
I'm angry that pieces written by women were completely overlooked for the entirety of my education, because this speaks to me more than the ones I was taught about.
I have no idea what you tried to say but I'm clarifying, I guess ?
@alberlos... My posts are still here, you can still read them?
I literally just said that this touches ME more than Chopin, I never ever said anything about Chopin's qualities, this is a different topic.
Mais, c'est du bon son ça ! Avec la partition, c'est parfait. Merci !
Chaminade est une compositeure tres bonne ! C'est beau que tu a aimé ce composition :)
This is 1st-rate brilliant writing AND playing!
Thank you a lot!
it really is...
C.Chaminade est, sans conteste et quelque soit la période, la plus douée des femmes compositeurs !
C.Chaminade is, undoubtedly and whatever the period, the most talented women composers!
Well .... listen to Lili Boulanger.... and you'll discover an even more talented woman composer....
Legend of Zelda, anyone? In the beginning?
Very close to Termina Field's chord progression and dynamic
I have always been looking for a channel like this one and haven’t found it until today, one day after I created my own one.
You are doing a great job, congrats
I've listened to a lot of recordings of this piece, and this is my absolute favorite. The sound is so clean and soft, especially in the middle registers-what kind of piano are you playing on, if you don't mind my asking?And your playing is precise and disciplined, but so expressive as well! I'm just very impressed, and I love this recording-thank you for posting it, it's a treasure!
Thanks for your comment! Glad you enjoyed it.
It's the "the giant" library from Native Instruments, I think.
@@PianoScoreVids I have "'The Giant"' in Native Instruments, too, but I've never been able to get it to sound this good. Your playing and recording audio quality are both excellent!
This is my favorite recording of this piece. Thank you!
You're the best at playing this on RUclips! Because you felt the piece better than others and you play every part of it unique. Thank you for enjoy!
Какая чудесная музыка)!!!!!
i can't speak russian... but yes it is a beautiful melody!
Your channel is a real treasure-trove for new players like me. Thank you so much for all your work and helping me find so much great music. This also reminds me a bit of Joel Sartore's PhotoArk: record them before they're forgotten in time...
Thanks! Hope I can upload more interesting and unknown piano music.
Я впервые слышу то произведение и очень вдохновилась его выучить!!!! Это изящно, грациозно, тонко и в то же время очень интересно!!!! Благодарю Вас за использование!!!!!!
That's brilliant!!
Oh wow, I'm surprised I never heard this piece before & I'm absolutely in love with it & will sure add it to my future endeavors. Thank you!
superb performance and great channel to find some hidden gems :)
Very interesting work.And great piano sound.In style.
Pleasant composition, well-performed
I love it !❤
Me too😊
Molto bello, grazie!
Such lively talent, so overlooked in more recent times. New to me until UK's Radio 3 played her Callirhoe symphonic ballet last week.
It's on a Dutton CD / SACD with the BBC Concert Orchestra. Highly enjoyable and, wouldn't you guess?, unrecognised by Shazam!
Another Excellent performance my friend 🎹🎶
Anyone who wants to hear more of Chaminade's piano greats, check out her concert studies. They are fabulous, and not yet really appreciated.
Fantastic!!!
Thank you for introducing me to another new composer. I had and still have a score of Chaminade which I found difficult to play forty years ago. I wonder if it is the Chaminade!
Great discovery!!!
Amazing!!!!
Beautiful 🌹
Wonderful, thank You!
Marvellous!!!
Never heard of this piece or the composer. So good.
Just amazing
thanks!
I’m not particularly a fan of Chaminade nor this piece, but your playing (especially in the short runs) is superb.
I love it!
Happy to hear! :-)
I find it curious that so many piano composers ignore duplication of notes in the treble and bass clefs. Listen at 2:56. In the score the right hand plays c, a, f, e flat (top to bottom) half notes. On the second beat, the righthand plays the f and e flat again, even though those notes are sustained in the treble clef.
It’s phrasing and voicing. Also instructs on the pedaling
Very characterful!
beautiful!
this should REALLY be in some kind of romantic drama scene
I find the second Arabesque a better piece, more ispired in material. Here we have an execution that underline the hidden spanish character, so common in Chaminade' s output ... Good execution!
Thank you very much! I'll try the second one too
My great-grandfather arranged this piece for chamber and a clarinet solo. Perhaps I’ll have it recorded one day.
interesting!
@@PianoScoreVids We started the computer score! Stay tuned.
@@DonChuchúhow is it going
@@nasirferguson4098 It’s done!

Is this you playing it? If so I would love to be able to cite you for a paper I'm doing for a music history course!
Yes, I played every piece on this channel. I am Julian Zalla. Do you need something else?
@@PianoScoreVids That's actually impressive, I myself have been too lazy to even finish 1 piece in recent months xD
Btw what happened? You haven't been active in the composer chat on WhatsApp for quite a long time, haven't you?
감사👍
Eccellenti composizioni, peccato che sia poco conosciuta ! Compimenti e grazie a Gamma 1734
This is brillianr, do you have infomation or background about this piece?
thanks! Not really, I don't know a particular backstory here, but it is definitely one of those forgotten gems which must be re discovered.
@@PianoScoreVids Yes, most people are lazy waiting for somebody who gets something precious covered by dust and represent it for them.)
Wow incredible playing thank you! Do you know where you can purchase the score? Thx 😊
I have it from here

Gamma1734 amazing thank you so much! I think this is you playing? You’re fantastic - I love it!
It is- enjoy the score!
Please mention the name of you (pianist ) I really love this piece
💐❤️
The chord progressions in bars 2-5 reminds me of the beginning of Yoshimatsu's Symphony No.5, but that's just me :D
I have to check that one out ^^
Looking back at my comment, I have to admit that they don't really sound similar. Maybe I was being a bit too enthusiastic about comparing different works to each other :/
@@PentameronSV hey i'm glad about any constructive commemt here :) and making people think and decide about related things surely counts
Don't devalue yourself.
I came here because the beginning reminded me of something from the Zelda videogames. Was curious if anyone else noticed.

This is access to ANOTHER universe, that I have just passed on the message to.
Great! thanks for sharing
schizophrenic, just like a woman nature!!! Thank you so much for making this video. Really love this
Uhhh, you want to repeat that one more time?

¿Who plays this piece?
I, every one on the channel.
Ciao che testiera usi?
Not one of her great compositions but a good chance to hear it, many thanks.
Many people said, but its the most watched chaminade video ...
For an arabesque this is the few of them which sound "arabic" for me ^^
hopefully i can put up the second one soon too !
@@PianoScoreVids Great! Wainting for another great interpretation!

thanks! enjoy my channel
@@PianoScoreVidsyou're insane omg i thought it was rubenstein or something 😲

Check out it's resemblance to 'Lord Willoughby's Welcome Home', a 16th Century English ballad: ruclips.net/video/xB6BNo2x9x8/видео.html
When I first listened to this it was a bit mind blowing.
Super beau et très bien joué
Why does it remind me of Smash Brothers Melee?
it's a similar progression. the hyrule field music in zelda games looks like it too
Is this The Giant?
Sounds like super smash bros :D
Sad to see people tainting a poinient piece of music by projecting their dispositions in the comments! I find the combined straightforwardness and saturation of this arabesque wonderful. I'm confused as to who's performing this, but the leggiero section was projected beautifully, definitely my favorite moment here! Thank you for uploading
Edit: I've noticed your paypal, and that you are a doctor of mathematics... to tell the truth I'm beside myself! I'm approaching my sophomore year in my mathematics degree also as someone greedy to expand my piano habits and awareness, and so I'm enthralled to have stumbled on your channel. I don't have much to give but I'll donate a part
Also- don't know if you're interested in electronic music but I have a large project being posted today if you don't have enough music to listen to ruclips.net/video/8IxoHtBPWh0/видео.html
@@rhodesmusicofficial hello, thank you, I play everything myself on this channel.
@@PianoScoreVids Oh, makes sense! Wonderful recording, thank you again for posting
It sounds like 5-6 different pieces spliced together.. I like the individual parts but (as a non-musician) I can't really follow the melody as it changes so drastically and rapidly..
The pianist is excellent as always though ;)
thanks i tried my best with the playing:)

Not schizophrenic but scherzophrenic !
Bro this is the theme for Legend of Zelda 🤣🤣🤣
A little bit like Chabrier. Not excellent music but good.
schizophrenic? in architecture there is the term eclecticism, mashing different things/styles together which often don't mix very well. romantic music is generally very experimental and freeform (in contrast to i.e: renaissance music, where suspense is carefully crafted). classical music on the other hand has comparatively lack of sophistication when it comes to texture, baroque (especially late era) a lack of rhythmical variation.
Bar 3-4 remindes me of Zelda 😅
