Name of this composition?
on: May 28, 2006, 05:07:38 PM
Sorry if I missed forum, admin's are welcome to delete my topic..
But..
I tried everywhere (local newsgroups, world groups, forums..) and no answer..
I'm looking for the name of this composition ( Recorded by my cellphone while walking the street..)
It sounds powerfull, and it would be nice to learn to play it...

I dont know, someone was performing this on ours main square, and some people were dancing (something "hari krishna" like :) )
It sounds very popular to me so I am little confused that noone knows this??

I can't recognise what it is but to me it seems an improvisation.
Currently learing:
- Chopin: Ballade No.3
- Scriabin: Etude Op. 8 No. 2
- Rachmaninoff: Etude Op. 33 No. 6
- Bach: P&F No 21 WTC I

It's not improvisation, for sure!!
I heard this composition many times, it is very popular..
Wel, this part I recorded is not so representative, but most of you heard this composition for sure..
To bad that I did not record the begining, but I hope that someone will recognise this....

Its hard to hear but I don't think it is an improvisation. It sounds too ordered, powerful, for it. I mean, the pianist holds back in a very sensible way, catching up momentum. That is hard to do when improvising.

sounds like an improvisation to me.  If nothing else you could just write it out by ear, it isn't tonally complicated.  Just a couple of suspensions.
