That’s what I consider a lot of his music. That and there’s something sinister about Alkan that I can’t put my finger on. Quite a lot I can enjoy though.
@@derby2510 It’s the low octaves in the bass with the really old harmony. The wide range and the octave doubling make the counterpoint very “heavy”, and that is surprisingly sinister.
Alkan was pure genious. He is my most favourite composer and I am glad, that you are sharing his underrated work!
Love them. They may be foursquare in parts, but are far from dull, with plenty of original traits that confirm the individuality of their composer.
Extreme Musik... Meisterhaft bewältigt!
Thank you sharing this beautiful music!
Excellent: a really sharp performance of these interesting pieces
Great!

Someone called Alkan - Mendelssohn on steroids

Sorry to say that even though Alkan is one of my favorites, this one isn't for me.
I think alkan is the most unplayable composer😳

Sorry but i really don't wanna regard that as "music"
@@leesean1794 WTF why? It’s not even atonal (I’m not saying atonal pieces aren’t music). It’s completely tonal and beautiful
@@yannaischrire7327 Sorabji music are not tonal, compared to romantic composers lol
