I recently learned about Bortkiewicz. I might have sporadically heard his pieces in the past, but I've been diving more deeply into his works, and I find them incredible. His style is right up my alley.
There are many pianists composers who have been guilty forgotten (and this channel amply demonstrates it), but after so many years of listening, I think that, in my humble opinion, Bortkiewicz was one of the most unfortunate. But I would also add Schutt, Blumenfeld, Golinelli and others.
According to Wikipedia, this composer lived through a life full of hardships many won't be able to imagine. This music is easy, light, sad, and lingering. As usual, thanks much.
I also read it, I thought of including it but one can read it on Wikipedia themselves. The quote from WW2 is hard to read, what awful times they were in!
@@PianoScoreVids Maybe just giving us a link to Wikipedia will save you time? Although we can always do it ourselves when we are truly interested. Thanks for your wonderful choices and perfect musicianship.
@@PianoScoreVids well I am sure you spent way lesser time than an average professional pianist, yet performing at professional level. Honestly to be amateur you have quite a gift to equalize professionals in very short time. If you had opted to play as a professional, hence doing it as a job, you would get excellence, trust me!
Beautiful!! Thank you once again Julian. Yet another gem from Bortkiewicz and stunningly played by you, as always! (Do I hear hints of Rachmaninoff in places?) I will find and learn this piece and endeavour to play it half as well as you, lol! 👌🤗
Dans cette musique flotte une sorte de brume propice aux rêves et aux dérives douces. Un climat de paix retrouvé que l'on ressent parfois sans savoir exactement pourquoi pendant certaines nuits d'été ! Cet artiste construit un discours d'intériorité, de respiration, qui sait faire place au silence
I feel like the last piece should be taken about 1.5 times faster ("con slancio" means with impetus) and gradually accelerate towards the passionate frenzy of the più mosso section. Anyway I certainly can't complain when you're churning out excellent performances left and right at your prodigious rate!
You're right, I hadn't noticed that footnote. I still think that it would be more effective at a brisker pace, especially as a conclusion to the whole set
I agree, but it's very dense style of writing and I couldn't play it that faster. Also, the first piece prescribes 3min but even with my 4+min it felt already really fast enough. Anways
Bortkiewicz is truly underrated
One of the best Bortkiewicz works.

Mine too:)
I'm amazed at your efficiency, Gamma! This is quite difficult to learn in a short time. You played flawlessly and gave me pleasure. Thanks.
Remarkable, isn't it?
@@MooPotPie Yes! It's a talent to play like that.
@@olga_piano Hi. Who is thw pianist of this piece? Thanks!

Спасибо большое! Борткевич самобытный комтозитор, его играть нелегко, но вы прекрасно влидеете инструментом!💝💐🌹
Este compositor é fantástico!! Bravo pela interpretação.

@@pietrolandri6081 Thanks for the lovely words:)
@@PianoScoreVids 😇
This is really beautiful! Thank you. Another save for my learning in the future.🥰
No 3. sounds extremely inspired from Scriabin, for example his Sonata No. 4 or his Fantasy in B minor
I thought the same! Specifically Scriabin's Op. 42 No. 4 Etude in F# major (same key even!)
Im in love of this set, so lovely and delicate. Really a master work of Bortkiewicz
Sätze 3 und 4 sind wirklich überragend! Vor allem der Schlußsatz ist in seiner Kürze ein echtes Highlight!
Impresiona la capacidad que tienes para interpretar cualquier obra. Una maravilla que nos dejas compartir. Gracias. 🥰

Wow, that was impressively beautiful. Bravo!
wow this is an amazing suite. Holy cow. Thank you for your performance, it was very good
Nice🔥
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏
The first few bars after 7:30 remind me of scriabin
Yes, he often used rich textures like this in a time of his life
"Tell me not to use the white keys without saying those words"
I want to learn this piece!
🌸🌸🌸
No. 3 sounds like Scriabin

What speaks against that is that there is a note "2 minutes", and I'm already significantly faster than that.

Yeah all those chords are no joke! Agree about the first piece, it sounds perfect at your tempo.
delicious
Who is pianist?
Gamma1734 is pianist.
He is not ukrainian - non ethnically, non by language. He is polish, who spoke in Russian.
Then change it in the English Wikipedia for a start.
@@PianoScoreVids Wikipedia is not infallible truth.
Correct, but you can help to make it better:)
@@PianoScoreVids i already corrected Russian wiki
