@@donnytello1544 It was a joke implying that "very petite and pretty" was not your actual comment, but the way you sign your comments, implying that you're very petite and pretty. I first wanted to write "so are you :3" and I guess I should have, cause the signing joke didn't really land.
Lol no th-cam.com/video/f0e9Kjmm9yo/w-d-xo.html Perhaps this one, played by the composer himself, shows more adequately that it is definitely not reminiscent of Rachmaninoff
@@pe-peron8441 Well, if it reminds me of Rachmaninoff, it reminds me of him 😂 Listen to measure 5 of the last movement of Rach's 1st concerto. Maybe it is different, but it has a similar character and sound in my opinion.
This guys crazy, I hear what your talking about, some parts sound identical. but I get what he’s saying. Rachmaninoffs early compositions didn’t represent his “generic” style and sound
@@pe-peron8441 14:40 also sounds vaguely similar to a motif Rach used in the second concerto, which is at 27:20 here th-cam.com/video/kS8hk0kL2sE/w-d-xo.html
This is the result when a genius piano prodigy "performer" w/o the genius for composition à la eg Rach tries to "compose" and refuses to embrace the genius of nascent jazz, ragtime & piano novelty. Proof of the pudding: Scott Joplin: The Entertainer, Maple Leaf Rag, Solace...= eternally loved and performed. Józef Hofman, who? Wish didn't he "just" tune up piano novelty & ragtime?
I don't understand why you're criticizing and complaining about Józef Hofmann. I think you should understand this : no composer, musician or artist try to satisfy the public in their creative product. In fact it's rather the opposite situation here : they try to apply, in art, their own point of view and it's up to you to accept it or denied it. Whatever you like it or not, never minimize and banalize the work of an artist just because you prefer Honky Tonk/Ragtime music.
by that argument, you could dismiss Chopin because he's not quite Mozart, Haydn or Schubert and not yet Brahms or Reger. And his Mazurkas are too stylized to dance to or to be heard at a village pub somewhere in 19th century Poland.
