Sections that no matter how hard you try, have to rewind and listen to again

[korlock]

Come on you know you do it too. You're listening to a concerto you've heard a million times, it may not even be that special of a piece to you. Then that part that stands out to you comes along and you can't fight the urge to just listen to it again. I wanna hear about it!

Here's one of mine:
Rach 3 Mvmnt 3 @ 7:20

No, never in a concerto for me.

There are addictive parts in many compositions, even mediocre ones. But I still prefer to listen to the whole thing and just zone out for the less interesting parts...

The Presto con fuoco section in Chopin's second ballade as played by Alfred Cortot. I get goosebumps every single time I hear it. Around 2:00

I tend to think that if a part of a work is worth listening to again that the composer put a repeat on it, or the entire work is worth a repeat . other than that it's out of context, like saying omg such an awesome sentence I just read I need I back and re-read the word right after that comma lol

I was tempted to pull a little bit out of this but found  myself expanding my favorite section to the point where I was re listening to the whole thing haha, and it's a short enough piece that it feels like a snippet but also 'complete'

,dat crazy fast moving harmonix progression reminds me if kapustin op 40 no 1 in a couple spots lol

Yeah, anytime you feel the need during your day you can 'roll it back over' and hear those zippy chords.  Not my kind of riff though.

Oh yes that certainly owes a lot to Kapustin. It goes through all the motions, but lacks what
makes Kapustin's music really great: determination, cohesion, structure, and melodic beauty, to
name but some virtues. Would this be a digital rendering or played by real fingers ? In the latter
case it's very good indeed. But we know Asian players, especially Japanese, are very good at
playing Kapustin.

It's an actual recording I have the cd/album and the original score.  It's way difficult and a real bugger to read.  The composer is more neoclassical than jazzer like NK.  His longer pieces from my book are definitely more shaped and complete. But I love all those rapid harmonic changes!

I can't stand listening to a smaller part of a piece, but still I have my favourite bits.

In Rach 3: The climactic section after the first repetition of the first theme, the cadenza and the piu mosso section in M1, piano's entry, chromatic scaley part with the main theme of M1, the section after the descending octaves, and the waltzy part in M2 and the thirdy arpeggy part and the calm section till the repetition of the M1MT in M3.
Coda of Chopin's 4th Ballade.
Climax of Rach 4 M1.
The arpeggy part and the climax of Rach S2.
Finale of Shostakovich 7.
The jumpy few seconds in the Prok 2 cadenza.
The beginning of D. 959.

I have a question about the Rach 3 third movement video earlier in the forum topic:
Does anyone know of a recording/video in which the ossic version is played at 7:57-8:00?

[pianoman8]

Anyone?

Sorry haven't been on this site in a while. That ossia section is amazing! I know that Evgeny Kissin uses it
