Can this guy write anything fucking easy lmao

I really enjoy this recording much more than other later recordings especially Etudes 3 and 5.

c'est beau,c'est très beau mais c'est creux,vide,sans mélodie, que du vent de notes sans raison . Veuillez écouter Scriabin op.9 (czcams.com/video/R7A7lgKI3x8/video.html&ab_channel=olla-vogala) par exemple

He COOKED omg! Both the composer and performer did fantastic with this

Such great fun. Great to listen to and great to play!

This piece is terrible. Too shallow and derivative.

Beautiful. Hints of Rachmaninoff.

What a sublime 3rd movement. Otherworldly! Serendipity! Sheer pulchritude! What a melodist! 🎼😇👌

Chopin's Wrong Note seems to have been inspired by the 10th study.

Pedants may argue [as they do, in some other comments] about whether Henselt was imitating or even plagiarizing Chopin, Glinka, Strauss, or some other composer. I could not care less about those possibilities. The only thing that really matters to me and many other people is that this is an extremely beautiful and "exciting" work by a very great (and much-overlooked) composer. I will be asking my local classical music station to play this and several other works by Henselt, so that other radio listeners will become acquainted with this "giant."

the melody at 1:55 is utterly gorgeous, on same level like Liebestraum and Schubert g-flat Impromtu.

Scriabin

Sounded like Bortkiewicz composed these pieces after playing a lot of Scriabin!

Drunk Chopin

Полная вдохновения, живая музыка. Хвала Гуммелю!

Great set.

Lovely!

Purple Dream! Love Reality! I AM! WE ARE!

1:25 2:50 23:40

Very unique piece! 🎉❤

Thanks to a pianist on CZcams called Claire Black and her recording of his Eros, I've been introduced to Bortkiewicz. This little gem of a sonata has played on repeat the last few days. I'm finding that it's typical of his quality. He really is an overlooked composer.

Lindo!!!

beautiful rendition, thank you for posting

4:12

15:08 seems beginning sounds alike Bortkiewicz Etude op 65 no 2

Also, some of these remind me of Czerny’s work, but these etudes are more refined and have more wit and finesse. The B-flat seems to suggest that Hummel has been playing Bach’s first Partita.

The missing commentary element here is what a significant link Hummel is between the Classical and Romantic eras. This has, traditionally, been shouldered by Beethoven, perhaps with the occasional participation of Schubert - as if virtually no one else played or composed for the piano at the time. So says the standard rep, and that is a load of nonsense. Listening to these, one can hear Mozart, Mendelssohn, a tinge of Chopin, even early Alkan. Go from these to the etudes of Hummel’s pupil, Henselt. Hummel is clearly a major “missing link.” So far exploring it, I actually prefer it to Beethoven.

Wow doesn't no.1 sound like it's straight out of Chopin's Op.25 or 28?

Wow doesn't no.1 sound like it's straight out of Chopin's Op.25? Wow

N. II sounds like Brahms’s rapsody

Maravilhoso.

start sounds a lot like his third etude "the brunette"

ele transformou estátuas da esquerdalha em tampa de bueiro👏👏👏👏

First theme is right out of Tchaikovsky’s manfred symphony

look like Rachmaninoff

Glorious Finale, wonderful Sonata and "Boo!" to the naysayers. I cannot recall a single performance by - take your pick - Cliburn, Horowitz, Gould, Wang, etc - that I've not read, "Well, they did miss the d sharp on measure 234" or "The accented notes should have been more pronounced" or even "Uninspired". It just burns me up knowing the effort and time entailed. OK, this is not a Lyaponov transcendental etude but so what? Bravo.

1:25 ayy its rach 1:49 i heard liszt 2:49 also chopin 4:39 sheesh even kalinnikov

In awe. Thanks.

4:12

2:49 This reminds me of that one part in the first movement of Chopin's F minor Concerto.

0:13 - the first theme from etude “La Brunne”, op.29-3 0:50 - again 1:09 - the second theme from op.29-3 1:26 - Rachmaninov - Piano Concerto No.2, op.18 1:38 - Tchaikovsky - Piano Concerto No.1, op.23 1:57 - Taneev - Prelude and fugue, op.29 2:50 - Chopin - Piano Concerto No.2, op.21
