"stormy, fateful" pieces to learn
on: October 27, 2007, 05:34:35 PM
Hi, :)
I´m looking for a certain kind of pieces to put in my repertoire, and need help finding it
Not too long, Stormy, "fateful".
Pieces like -
Scriabin op 8/12 "patetico", op 42/5 "affanato"
Chopin op 28/24 dm prelude, op 10/12 revolution etude, (maybe op 25/12 too).
Henselt op 2/1 dm,

I´m struggling with Bortkiewicz op 29/3 now, which also has that certain emotion to it.
cheers  ;)

28/15-Chopin has a stormy middle section although it is light at either end.

DA ZEPP 8)
For us musicians, the music of Beethoven is the pillar of fire and cloud of mist which guided the Israelites through the desert.  (Roughly quoted, Franz Liszt.)

For some reason, I don't think Chopin's Op.10 No.12 should be on that list.


What about Liszt - Chasse Neige?

Well the 10/12 has a lot of "war feeling" to it, and it´s a bit different, but I think it fits on the repertoire I´m trying to build.
I´ve always liked chasse neige, maybe I´ll try that one later

Medtner's tales, especially the Op. 20 set, definitely fall under this category. Actually, a lot of Medtner does.
