He was a pupil of Mozart when he was a 10 year old boy.Mozart was fascinated by his great talent and also took up board and lodging at his place in addition to teaching.
@@sorim1967 Fact is fact and it is most often hurt but Franz Schubert 700 plus great songs are never forgotten and I have over 100 recordings of each and every song.
White we may lament as to why Hummel was forgotten, he had by all accounts a wonderful life when compared to Beethoven and at one stage was the most expensive and celebrated teacher in Europe . I have followed his remarkable revival from oblivion and now we are seeing others like Czerny following in his footsteps. He has certainly enriched the lives of those of us who enjoy his music. If you enjoy Hummed I recommend you also listen to the piano concertos and chamber works of Carl Czerny as I cannot help but think that his works were what Hummel might have written if he had lived. (eg the A minor concerto and the newly released premiere recording of the Grand Concerto in E flat on Naxos.
Stuart McLaren Hummel was still alive when Czerny’s A-minor concerto was written in 1828. For Hummel’s part, I believe that he wasn’t in the business of ripping off his own hit, and Czerny’s concerto is inspired by Hummel’s in several key places.
Hummel was an amazing composer. His music is of an elegance and beauty that deeply enchants us. Although he was an extraordinary musician in the various genres he composed, he is fabulous to me in piano concerts he wrote. The grace, lyricism, subtlety and unbelievable musical harmony, makes him a true genius in this genre of music, that are true masterpieces. Viva Hummel and his divine music. The pianist is fantastic not only for the sensitivity he conveys to us but for the excellent virtuosity he employs. The orchestra and conducting are superb. Thanks for the moments of unforgettable pleasure that this magnificent recording gives us.
Its amazing how top quality production values can bring a piece to life. This is how classical music should be heard: in full clarity and in full force, like you're in the middle of the orchestra yourself. I hope amazing production values like this will continued to be pursued in classical recordings in the future. Poor recording quality only re-enforces the misconception that classical music is a thing of a past.
I remember "discovering" Hummel just before starting uni (in 1968!) - a record of his double concerto (violin & piano) and first piano concerto was one of the 8 records I took with me when I started - and was one of the ones I played most. Recently I bought a box set of his music - 20 CDs - and I've not listened to them all yet... As others here have said, he's still underrated, though he is better known no than 50 years ago!
Let’s applaud Mr Commellatto for his superb virtuosity here! Thank you so much for doing these recordings with real Hammerflügel. It makes all the difference! There is obvious passion and respect for these works coming through your performance. A wonderful composer too often overlooked.
Whenever I’m tired and/or facing a difficult task I always listen to Hummel. Such invigorating, brilliant music which with all its vitality never leaves the realms of grace and beauty. A joy to the world! Thank you for the upload! 🙏
Très beau concerto, qui mérite amplement d'être connu et rejoué !!! Hummel, un compositeur indéniablement très inspiré ! Un immense merci à tous ces artistes qui le tirent de l'oubli ...qu'il n'aurait jamais dû connaître !!!
This is my first encounter with Hummel; what a distinct, and interesting orchestral voice (and I'm not referring to the fortepiano...). I'm delighted - thank you!
I have been following Hummel's revival for many years and remember the first recording of this must be 40 years ago. But his big break came in 1988 with the now famous recording by Stephen Hough and the ECO which won the recording of the year in the concerto section. He did it again a few years later with the recording of his masses. All his piano concertos have been recorded at least once and some several times.
Agreed. This is somewhat labored and dull. Not the fault of the piece, though. The Shishkin performance is also very fine, but Hough remains unmatched.
More -or less I agree but they’re gains here and there : orchestral sonorities often come across with more immediacy, and I like the extra percussiveness/ clarity of the fortepiano. .
I had been looking for Hummel music. I found your volume 2. So I have to look for Volume 1. Here we are! You make my day and every day after. What a joy. Merci infiniment Brilliant Classics.
A big Thank you to Brillant Classique for making us know this excellent composer. Posterity is sometimes very unfair. It’s excellent, we never tire of it. Of course Mozart and Beethoven... But here is a composer of a creative quality quite comparable to those great Masters of the past whose name is unknown! Un grand Merci à Brillant Classique de nous faire connaître cet excellent compositeur. La postérité est parfois très injuste. C'est excellent, on ne s'en lasse pas. Bien sûr Mozart et Beethoven... Mais voila un compositeur d'une qualité créatrice bien comparable à ces grands Maîtres du passé dont on ignore le nom!
The first concerto is beautiful! Especially his first movement. I didn't know who was this guy, but he seems to be a good composers. Hope to hear more pieces of him in the future!
There are quite a few recordings of the Hummel piano concertos posted on CZcams. Steven Hough has a good rendition of the b minor: czcams.com/video/xMMuUXP5mZA/video.html I can't recommend Hough's recording of the a minor, though. Gratefully, that hasn't made it to CZcams so far as I can tell.
Magnifico ! Un concerto che dovrebbe far parte del repertorio dei grandi pianisti attuali; ho sentito la mancanza del video dell' orchestra e del pianista, ma la musica mi ha rinfrancato l'anima, Grazie !!!
I never expected such color & feeling could be achieved with this instrument. Combining the sturm und drang of the early Beethoven concertos with the joyful lyricism of Chopin, Maestro Hummel welcomed the Romantic era in a dramatically operatic fashion. This is a wonderful performance of a composer who wrote way more than trumpet pieces.
I am began introduce with Hummel's piano works from November 2007 and get many pleasure! I am enjoy very much by his music for a today - at present time! Piano concerto a-moll - is Miracle! From 3:59 - is very magnificent, fiery!
hummel has composed some of the most dramatic and innovative piano concertos of the early 1800's. with spohr and ries he belongs in a group of innovators who are sadly little-known today although in their day they were considered as legitimate successors to beethoven, until schumann gave the title to brahms later on.
Thanks, beautiful lovely melody piano concertos music.Sounds of silence, peace and light the mind n heart. Lovely combination of sounds n music! Amazing piece video! Infinite love!🙏🎹
The A minor concerto should be mandatory for all music graduate major in pianoforte because it has every essence to be expected from a competent professional piano virtuoso.
Hummel was Mozart's pupil when he was a 10 year old boy. Mozart also provided him with food and lodging as well.This shows how well Mozart care of him.
Very well, that is the first possible version to play, i've listen to. Stephen Hough's Version is a masterworks, but in this style not possible to perform for anyone
@Vassilis Papadopoulos For contemporaries, Hummel is a bigger name than Beethoven (Hummel could play Beethoven's scores, Beethoven couldn't play Hummel's!); Beethoven himself envied him, although Hummel supported him financially.
It's a shame Hummel isn't better known for being a contemporary of Beethoven, but at least he wasn't as unlucky as Salieri, who has been ridiculed endlessly by people who haven't bothered to listen to a single piece written by him.
Hummel probably wouldn't have said so. They were very good friends - so much so that at Beethoven's request, Hummel performed at the great man's memorial concert.
I have felt guilty for extolling the names of Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven just because everybody else does. If I could really tell the difference, then why can’t I tune late to a classical radio station, listen to a composition which I have never heard before, and tell by the mere quality of the composition whether it’s Bach or Telemann, Mozart or Salieri, or Beethoven or Hummel? I posed this question on an Internet forum and was told that the work of the greater composers lies not in its beauty but in its innovativeness.
beautiful ! just discovered this composer and i love it. Perhaps is the piano forte a bit dry, i guess it's due to the instrument itself, sounds like a young chang low cost.

Really
He was a pupil of Mozart when he was a 10 year old boy.Mozart was fascinated by his great talent and also took up board and lodging at his place in addition to teaching.
Hummel was one of the torch bearer at Beethoven's funeral together with Carl Czerny and Ries.
I think this the single most insulting sentence I have ever read about Franz Schubert.

Gostei
I always like the way Hummel blends the orchestra and the piano; to me, it sounds just right.
Yes indeed and you might like to listen to the new Naxos release of Czerny's Grand concerto in Eb as Czerny seems to follow in the steps of Hummel
Necessary to revisit masterpieces like this at least once a month

Hummel is an example of someone doing everything right but not winning. But hey, that's life!
He was actually pretty successful at his time. His fame faded after he died though.
I love Hummel!
Highly delightful, between Mozart and Chopin, these virtuoso compositions deserve a wider audience.
HUMMEL was brilliant when he composed this masterpiece.
Hummel is my great great great piano teacher.
Comfort of these music is immeasurable and beyond description
I'm on cloud

Brilliant! ;) and thanks for using the (apparently) original metronome markings (and so kind of debunking the "whole beat theory")!
The fortepiano in these concertos gives them a very captivating and surprising aspect.I like it very much. Thanks !

The fortepiano in these concertos gives them their names, piano concertos.
@@robotkarel I meant against for instance Steinways and Bechsteins pianos.
@@robotkarel Not that I have anything against Bechsteins or Steinways but I like the sound of a fortepiano and certainly in these these concertos

In my opinion a way better interpretation is the one from Stephen Hough with the English Chamber Orchestra.
You are comparing a beginning professional to a long time many prices winning world virtuoso.

Hummel was so unlucky as to live the same time with Beethoven....
Hummel probably wouldn't have said so. They were very good friends - so much so that at Beethoven's request, Hummel performed at the great man's memorial concert.

I wonder how much attention the Hummel trumpet concerto would get if Beethoven composed a trumpet concerto.
Do you think there is only one place of a composer in this world? ))
You can hear Beethoven in these 'Hummel-klavier' concertos.

I really hate to say something heretical, but often I prefer Hummel to Beethoven.
I totally prefer Hummel. Not a fan of Beethoven or Mozart. Hummel is the best. I discovered him only about 15 years ago.
