I like this more than the 3 pf. Concerti.

Heard this a few years back for the first time in Rochester Cathedral one Christmas eve. Been part of my Christmas ever since

Drawing notes…

I was SHOCKED that Alkan had anything more to say after that incredible Scherzo!! And of course, in the most bewildering move possible, he does a recap of the suite before going into the Barcarolle. Ahead of his time by every metric imaginable.

That second movement… not only is this just so foreign to his time, but it feels foreign to humanity. Alkan was truly one in a billion to have had these ideas hundreds of years ago.

Totally life enhancing. A wild ride and yet it makes complete sense on its own terms. How can that be when you consider the range of the invention? Kind of a miracle! A bit like the performance! It must have taken forever to learn. Even the genius that is Kevin Bowyer described it as 'nearly unplayable music'. Bravo!

Spannend und interessant. Für meinen persönlichen Geschmack ein wenig zu dick, ich mag es lieber, wenn Musik auch Transparenz aufweist. Aber dennoch: ich habe es gerne angehört.

We’re doing procession, This Little Babe and Deo Gracias in Cincinnati Youth Choir

I have to play this soon as the harpist, and I‘m shaking in my shoes because of the tempo😅

I recommend the recording with Ulf Wallin...

Gotta love the beggining quote from Beethoven’s pathetique suite

This rocks!

Infumable.

Why do people hate violas so much???

I like this work a lot. Do you think Allgen's other string quartets will ever be recorded?

It's unique and intriguing. Breathes lots of aesthetic nuance of agony here: powerful.

Very beautifully played by both artists.

oh my gosh this is AMAZING and now i want to play this

ohh that's the way to attack C string. bravo. here's V's wiki link....sounds like a primer of my violin/viola studies, with Rode, De Beriot etc DG SD CA en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henri_Vieuxtemps

thanks, we're hearing this tonight in SD CA with faculty from SDSU along with a bunch of other little heard rep. somehow missed this in my collection of viola rep. There's an altnerate version with Zimmerman. TOO MANY MISPLACED COMMERCIALS!!!!????

I loved what I heard and I hope you decide to continue. It has the makings of a really beautiful piece. btw I am a huge fan of Shostakovich. Take care and stay well.

22:48 Awesome!

And the performances are outstanding: bringing the music to life while remaining faithful to the score. I've never come across Ms McCallum before, but I shall now be seeking her out. Thanks for posting.

A magnificent work, (Messiaen's piano masterpiece?), poorly played.

Ending not Bland but shows Admirable Restraint......BRAVO from Mexico City!

Loved what I heard, I hope you'll get in a better place and give it a full development some day.

No. 4 is particularly lovely.

one year before the composer pass away....he composed his feeling.....

Full movement information is as follows: I. Moderato - Allegro non troppo - Poco animato - Più mosso - [...] - Animato - Tempo I - Vivo II. Lento con grande espressione - Poco largamente - Tempo I - Poco più largamente - Tempo I e sempre tranquillo III. Allegro vivo - Meno mosso, ma sempre con movimento - [...] - Più mosso - Vivo e marcato - Marcatissimo

Far best when sung by a children's choir (preferably a boys' choir) rather than adult sopranos.

İkimizin şarkısıydı 2 hafta oldu ben hala dinliyorum sen yüksek sesle dinleme çocukların uyanır...

Our chorale has “This Little Babe” as part of our concert next Sunday. I’m a bass and every time the ladies sing this we guys just sit back in awe. What a fabulous piece! This evening our local high school chorus is singing all of the work. Just a few hours away. Can’t wait!

My university choir performed several sections of the SATB version, but I was thrilled to hear that there was a treble version as well. Thank you for posting this score animation video. What edition is the score, though? I found the treble version score, and it listed all the parts as Treble I, Treble II, and Treble III. EDIT: I’m asking what edition the uploader used because the score in the video lists the parts as Soprano, Mezzo-soprano, and Alto instead of Treble I, Treble II, and Treble III.

Do you happen to have his Tripartita? That one has the same vibes as this and is just as good, if not better!

Speechless Have maestoso e spiritoso moments I love Lutoslawski music

да боже мой, послушайте! это очень хорошо сделано и я бы на вашем месте хоть сколько-нибудь позаботился бы о реальном исполнении! если вы говорите что у вас проблемы с самооценкой, то они напрасны. не знаю как это описать, но звучит достаточно свежо. у этого есть какой-то определенный дух, когда слушаешь это не просто пролетает мимо ушей. конечно Шостакович чувствуется но это только влияние конечно. продолжайте! умоляю

Kudos to Lutosławski's wife, Danuta, who was the copyist for the String Quartet and subsequent works, and who helped solve the notational challenges involved in Lutosławski's "controlled aleatoric" compositions.

Such underrated a piece of music!
