Start of an Année de Pelerinage Project
on: July 08, 2011, 04:17:03 PM
Here is the first step of my Année de Pelerinage Project. Chapelle de Guilliaume Tell. I had allways much respect for this piece. On one hand it is not at all the kind of breathtaking virtousity-stuff with haunting melodies like many pieces composed for the success on stage. I know that this is not the way this piece might ever convince anyone. On the other hand it shows the pathetic seriousness which affords a wide range of romantic interpretational means to make the naked score to the musical speech of a Liszt who composed for his musical ideas more than for any audiance. I like this attitude and would like to reflect it with my interpretation. As all my projects this is done with a Fazioli-sampleset and intensiv editing of the mididata. I am curious what you think about this realisation.
