Had I never listened to this piece and should have someone asked me to make an educated guess about whom had written it, I would have said "Busoni" or "Reger" or "Godowski". Harmonic solutions, dynamic evolution, the whole mood of this piece is absolutely visionary....I'm speechless ....
A very accurate and perpicacious observation! It does bring to mind especially much of Reger and Busoni (both fantastic composers and quite overlooked). Any theme of Bach taken up by Liszt is sure to be substantial: his rhapsodic and grandiose writing (which brings to mind his awesome Sonata) combines marvellous with the brooding descending chromaticism of the Bach theme: but though Liszt pays hommage: this is vintage. Wasn't familiar with this piece either, but what a find. As you say, Liszt has some very "forward sounding" music for his time.
I think Liszt has died more than once... First when he lost his son Daniel in 1859 (who was only 20) and then when his lost his daughter in 1862 (who was only 26). Going through the most unbearable pain a parent can experience twice in such a short time... I can't imagine how he must have felt.
Le côté mystique de Liszt transparaît ici et préfigure ses messes, son Christus etc sans que ne disparaisse son côté virtuose du piano qui nous laisse sans voix !
The placement of the Chorale as the finale has to be one of clever things Liszt has done, its straightforward nature becomes the most powerful statement of the work after a series tumultuous variations, bravo!
At the end of the day I know that there’s this incredibly rich and exciting channel which helps me to leave everything behind and dive into another dimension… And it makes me truely happy to see how many people love and appreciate this channel and all this madness! 🔥❤️
I have this and love to play it. But i never knew who wrote it because it was missing the cover page and the first page only has the title. i thought it was probably newer than liszt. like busoni, maybe. :P
The piano solo version is far better than the organ version. I just love playing it, because it is one of those pieces that you can't just play technically, you have to mirror the emotions of the music into your mind and right back into your playing. So that you literally reach a peak of inner desperation at the climax right before the Coda kicks in and the Choral relieves all the tension that has been building. I have to say though that Prommachart fails the final build up from the Allegro moderato because he starts this too fast and has no room to further accelerate as Liszt asks. I believe you have to play this with a wider speed amplitude so that you still have reserves to go faster when the "stringendo" comes.
I'm relatively new to Liszt's music, given that I've only listened to his 2nd Piano Concertos, his Liebestraums and his transcendental etudes. I always had the impression that he was just a full on showman whose compositions only intend on being flashy and demanding and the Elvis Presley of the 19th century (I seriously have no doubts that Presley is just a reincarnation of Liszt). After I read Liszt's story written in the description though, I realized how little I know about who Liszt actually is as a musician.
Valerica Valentine, agreed. I understand that one would dismiss the Liebesträume arrangements and the 1st Piano Concerto as a mere virtuoso blabber-but the 2nd Concerto was such an ingenious piece of work, and it shouldn't be categorized as such.
You should definitely hear the complete ANNEES DE PELERINAGE and the HARMONIES POETIQUES ET RELIGIEUSES, the Sonata and a good selection of his often bleak but beautiful late piano pieces... also the TOTENTANZ for piano and orchestra. I also recommend his songs, so wonderfully inventive and varied... and that doesn't even begin to explore his purely orchestral works, or his choral works, especially CHRISTUS and the astonishing VIA CRUCIS. A word to the wise: don't believe any of the "received wisdom" about Liszt's music! (And read Alan Walker's 3-volume biography, if you can.) Happy listening! :-)
Liszt was much more awe-inspiring and complex of a human being than Elvis could ever aspire to be. He contributed not only to music performance but also published lots of serious writings on the state of Art and engaged in discussions about the future of music. If you're into biographies I recommend Walker's three volumes.
I have heard the story behind this piece and it made me appreciate it more. I'll bet composing the Latin hymns were therapeutic too. I hope to see more of them from your channel soon.
Wonderful. Would you by chance have access to recordings of Liszt's "Magyar dalok"? I listened to some midis of them, they seem pretty interesting and very ethnic-sounding. I'd love to hear them played.
What God does that is done well. I shall keep to this thought; It may be that on the rough road I shall be driven by distress, death and misery, yet God will just like a father hold me in his arms therefore I let him alone rule over me.

Thank you for sharing my recording. ❤️
Thank *you* for delivering such a sensitive and moving performance with a judicious touch! All the best to you!
Your recording is excellent!
You got skills!
This is a great performance. I love how you don't rush it and let its naturalness play out. Really well done.

@@robertoalexandre4250 appreciated, sir. Thanks
Imagine being the most famous pop star early in your life and ends your life having so many problems :( feels kinda sad

Man this channel is a literal youtube treasure, great work man honestly.
Couldn't agree more.
Holy this channel is so underated
Tell me about it. This is my first time of hearing this work.

The first time I listened to this, zi sobbed when the chorale came.
(And that very Chorale is also the end of the eponymous cantata of the clever Bach. )
At the end of the day I know that there’s this incredibly rich and exciting channel which helps me to leave everything behind and dive into another dimension… And it makes me truely happy to see how many people love and appreciate this channel and all this madness! 🔥❤️
What a wonderful channel. Thank you.
I’m so happy to have found your channel. Greetings from France. Keep up the great work
Your description makes this all the more amazing than I ever thought it could be.
So beautiful, so majestic, so dignified.
Of course, Liszt's most visionary piece has to be based on Bach
Does that displease you? 😆
Astounding performance!
Great piece. Seems like a kind of proto-Mahler, especially the Resurrection symphony.

Thank you for explaining the piece. It was very helpful.

Tbh the 2nd concerto is a really great work and not as flashy as the first one

listen to his sonata in b minor (Zimmerman)

Magnifica esecuzione
Amazing

Great!
Who are you?? Excellent!
Liszt dedicated this piece to Anton Rubinstein!
Wonderful. Would you by chance have access to recordings of Liszt's "Magyar dalok"? I listened to some midis of them, they seem pretty interesting and very ethnic-sounding. I'd love to hear them played.
Several have been recorded by Carlo Grante for the complete Liszt Naxos project: th-cam.com/play/OLAK5uy_lcSDyONpn6BRTEpf37FKRVWZ4cLCA57Qw.html
@@AndreiAnghelLiszt Thanks for that info. Will check on it.
10:07 and 10:25 Bachs Aria "Es ist vollbracht" ??
The description is apalling!!! Liszt tried suicide attempts?!?!?!
I want to know what the lyrics are meaning about. Do you have transcription of it?
What God does that is done well.
I shall keep to this thought;
It may be that on the rough road
I shall be driven by distress, death and misery,
yet God will just like a father
hold me in his arms
therefore I let him alone rule over me.
