Chopin Ballade No. 4 (2021)
Dear Friends,
I finally got a chance to make a newer recording of this Ballade. I feel it is closer to my view of the masterwork than that earlier version from when I was young. The thematic transformations and pulse are much more natural. More importantly, the narration is uninterrupted from beginning to end, so it holds together much better. Also, I feel that this version is more vulnerable, which makes it more disarming, perhaps. Let me know your thoughts...
Love,
S

Sergio Tiempo's arrangement of Chopin Etudes: thirds with revolutionary
มุมมอง 51K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Answering the request of some of my followers, this was part of a program I did in France for Eve Ruggieri I think around 2003 (not sure). It's an arrangement I had made because I was so lazy and thought I would save time by warming up with two different etudes at the same time. Hence Op. 25, No. 6 in the right hand, and an adapted Op. 10, No. 12 in the left... Warning: not to be taken as a ser...

Dear You, Thank you so very much for all of your votes and commentaries. I really enjoyed our experiment a great deal. So as promised, here is the result of your input. As of July 21, 2018, Version 3 was the overwhelming winner. In a way it makes sense since it is one of the most natural for me. To my surprise, however, version 4 was in second place (with Version 1 very close to it). I really d...

    I have a question - wouldn’t the fact that the Op 10 No 12 in the left hand here is in G# minor mean that the hand positions would be wildly different to C minor? Does that not affect your practice? Or do you force yourself to use C minor fingering on G# minor?

    Mister Tiempo, I wanted to ask somebody close to Martha Argerich a question. I always see Argerich's and your wrists being very relaxed, but when I try to relax them, I can't. My question-how do you achieve that floating feeling in the wrist/freedom at the piano? I'm stuck, no matter how hard I practice and many face the same problem. I'm looking forward to your answer. ☺️

    If Godowsky tweaked Chopin's Etudes into his Studies on Chopin, why not? Combining Chopin etudes contrapuntally was Godowsky's method.

    Unique as it is, personally the playing here is overdone. Moments of reflection and contemplation are disturbed by irregular phrasing and strange rubato; although this may contribute to the "unknowability" of this elusive and profound work, I simply don't think it works. Silence is pivotal in all of Chopin, least in this ballade... it is a pity to hear silence abused and ruined. Technically brillant, discounting the mere slips in the coda (perhaps due to the excessive ferocity?) but musically lacking in thought.. it needs to breathe, and in my humble opinion, I do not (yet) hear this music taking control of itself, or breathing like an autonomous "entity"... which is arguably the quality in performance that transcends reality and approaches the closest to the concept of perfection.

    Sir, I wonder why you didn't take part in the Chopin competition/Tchaikovsky competition etc .... when you were younger. I believe your unique interpretations would have reached more people if you had taken part in these big competition, and I also believe you would have been at least a finalist.

    apperenty this is extremely difficult ballade for delicate interpretation, what you think about Krystian ZImerman performance ?

    • @sergiotiempo5542
      @sergiotiempo5542 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dear @peterectasy, thank you for sharing your thoughts. I LOVE Mr. Zimerman's playing of this piece. Particularly the DG recording. It's true that it is extremely subtle and with very refined nuances. He also manages to create an overall feeling of well-aged wine. Our approaches are different simply because the music allows a multiplicity of interpretations. His view, I think, is more episodic and he makes clear delimitations between sections by taking a lot of time between them. He nevertheless keeps a similar palette of colors from beginning to end, thus creating unity. My view of the piece is more multithreaded. I see all of the different themes in the piece undergo individual transformations. More specifically there is a duality between the static and the fluid which takes place throughout. And I see all of the threads, at different points in the piece, having a tendency to go from the static to the fluid state, culminating in the coda's explosion of fluid and almost chaotic effervescence. I hope to convey a feeling of constant mutation, mostly avoiding clear-cut movement-like separations in the piece. The subtlety that I seek is within each theme's lifespan and their respective morphing psychological changes. This means sometimes sacrificing the general mood of a section for the mood of its inner characters, and allowing the the general mood to be defined by the resulting state (Sort of like counterpoint). Finally, the most important thing, I believe, is that in order to make music convincingly one must ultimately be true to one's own nature. This nature will not please everyone just like no personality is compatible with everyone, but at least there will be some truth in the expression and this is, in my opinion, the only thing that persists. Fortunately, we all have different natures, and this is what allows us to continue playing the same masterpieces in as many different ways, thus revealing the unfathomable greatness of the works. But in short, yes. I love Krystian's Ballade. 😄
