[Daevren]

If you used the search you would have found that someone (dark-something, if I remember correctly) posted a link to the full score.

[luda888]

do i search Opus Clavicembalisticum?

[Daevren]

Considering you had only one post I wasn't sure if you were comming back, Ill search for it...

I deleted OpusClav.pdf from my webspace. E-mail me at darkwind @ darkwinddesign.com (without the spaces) if you want it. Also, I really need a recording of this.

[joell12068]

I have Madge's recording.

I hear he's the worst.  Try hamelin or ogdon.

You're really not missing out on much.

A three-way mix up involving the Clavice, Alkan concerto, and Godowsky studies?

What?

luda: you can find a recording using a P2P program like WinMX or Kazaa.  It's usually pretty rare though.

[luda888]

i heard some one tried them , but couln't find it

[joell12068]

Hamelin hasn't recorded this yet.  If he ever does, I will get it in a heartbeat.

 THis thread is almost as annoying and tiresome as listening to Sorabji....

I don't think anyone has made a serious attempt at playing the work, though it is apparently brilliant.

I don't think anyone has made a serious attempt at playing the work, though it is apparently brilliant.

 That "apparently" is quite amusing.  For all its supposed brilliance, the rhythmic monotony of his works on the whole, makes for exceeingly boring fare.

[Jake]

I give my piano teacher the benefit of the doubt when he says that it is brilliant - if for nothing else than being hours long and not making an absolute mockery of Sorabji (although he protested it's release).

PS: By "apparently", I'm essentially conceding that I don't really know much about the piece myself.

hay guyz look sorabji sux ok lolol blah blah blah etc.

Stop judging his works before you've even listened to one measure. And the statement of Sorabji being rythmically monotone, is completely untrue. He has come up with incredible rythms, odd and very interesting. In a moment I'll post a small midi file of a section of one of his sonatas, I think your opinion of him might change, or maybe not.

[luda888]

I CAN"T FIND THE RECORDING AND SHEET MUSIC YET!!

Now you are pissing me off.

1. Sheet music HAS been posted in your thread.
2. STOP BUMPING. If anyone has a recording they will post it in your thread, if no one does then thread will die.

Time to let it die I think.

[luda888]

Now you are pissing me off.

1. Sheet music HAS been posted in your thread.

 Sorry, but his rhythm is completely monotonous to me, and I've heard both the 2nd and 3rd sonatas, along with the opus clav.

Listen to his First Sonata, for beginners. It sounds almost Scriabin-ish.

 True; Of all his large-scale works, I found that one the most enjoyable.

:'(Darkwind!!! get the page with the sheetmusic fixed!!! PLZ!!

[DarkWind]

Luda, first of all, stop bumping so many damn threads that are over a year old. Second of all, why do you even want to see it? It's not like you'll be playing it any time of your life.

[luda888]

cuz i want to play it

[pseudopianist]

cuz i want to play it

Why do you wanna play it when you never even heard it or seen the score?

[Daevren]

Why he wants to play 3+ hours of some of the hardest music ever written and he has never heard it or seen the score?

What kind of question is that? Obviously he is just a child. When I was 12 I was foolish too.

[DarkWind]

cuz i want to play it

Unless you have three hands or go by the name of Marc-Andre Hamelin, you won't be playing this piece in your lifetime. I'm sure no one in this whole pianoforum could learn it, let alone a bunch of the concert pianists that exist out there. What makes you think you are better?

[Spatula]

LOL HOW TRUE (AND I SPEAK ON BEHALF OF ALL BOYS AT OR ONCE AT THE AGE OF 12...)

now I will speak with lowercase sentences.

actually i will play it, IF I GET HOLD OF IT!!!!

[joell12068]

Better watch out!  The curator of the Sorabji Archive himself has started scoping out various internet piano forums - at least two that I know of -  looking for those distributing Sorabji and Hamelin scores.   I don't know if he's gotten in to this one yet.

[luda888]

No, you won't.

[luda888]

Yes, I will. I will send a recording to everybody when I get it and play it.
