      @@davikersulks9525 No problem! I first heard it on the recently Frank Dupree Kapustin album, which is incredible! I got it for the concerto (I believe No. 5), and ended up falling in love with the Concerto for 2 Pianos & Percussion.

    I discovered Rautavaara's concerto a few months ago, and some of the parts in it are just so out of the box that it has become one of my favourites

    Came for Ravel, was blown away by Kapustin. Never have I heard of him, nevermind the concerto, but now I truly wanna play it, seems so fun! Thanks for sharing!

      The music of Kapustin is so, so wonderful- and the concerti are a great entry point!
      For me, I discovered Kapustin through a CZcams recommendation after the Ravel G major concerto (another personal favourite!), and eventually found my way into the concerto for 2 pianos and percussion.
      It's a crime Kapustin isn't more well known.
      Happy listening, and glad I can help more people discover this wonderful music!

    It's excellent that you showcase repertoire beyond the most commonly played piano concertos. Classical music enthusiasts should hear more composers like Rautavaara and Kapustin. Thank you!

    Man the chords ravel writes are just so wow man. It just hits so damn ethereal. Idk if I’m hearing it right it’s like whole tone runs and altered dominant chords. Fuck it’s so good

      It really is an incredible recording of an incredible piece.
      I wasn't really sure how many people would know it, it's definitely more obscure than most of other Piano Concerti.
      Glad to know I've found a fellow Rautavaara lover!

    Hey, was wondering why you chose the Rautavaara one.

    • @ThomasRamsay_Music
      @ThomasRamsay_Music  Před měsícem

      I was looking to include more recent repertoire in these videos, partly because I love introducing more obscure pieces, but also because I really love and am passionate for them. I'm still exploring Rautavaara's other piano concerti, but the first always made the biggest impact to me on first hearing. I wasn't sure where exactly to clip it, so I settled on the ending.
      What a wonderful, wonderful piece of music.

      @@IEEMAZ_Convoluted_14.2.8.5 Interesting question!
      Dissonance is a compositional device and can be used in both good or bad ways.
      It's a bit like, say, adding a specific herb or spice when cooking food. Sometimes it can ruin a perfectly good dish, but other times it will transcend the initial meal.
