Charles Alkan - 2 Petites pièces, Op.60, No. 1 ‘Ma Chère Liberte’ (Human Performance + Score)

[@melonica90]

very first part reminds me of his prelude op.31 no.13... strong similarity!

[@Medtszkowski]

I will listen to these both later in a row

[@AVIDEOGAL]

LISZTADDICT - QUESTION FOR YOU......... WHY DO YOU THINK SO MANY OF THE GREATS, ESPECIALLY KISSIN, HAS NEVER TACKLED ANY ALKAN ???
COMPLETE MYSTERY TO ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Medtszkowski]

I believe kissin is too much of a normie to play anything but the most popular Chopin piece

[@katrmior]

great find!

[@marksoftime]

I adore this

[@aaronkim3856]

this is AWESOME, i might pick up piano again and learn this because it's so pleasant to listen to. thank you for uploading this video :)

[@Medtszkowski]

I am planning on learning this soon myself. If you learn this, please make a recording!! It doesn’t have to be great, but many Alkan fans will gather around your video

[@aaronkim3856]

@@Medtszkowski it's definitely ambitious for me but i got the first subject down ;)

[@Medtszkowski]

That’s awesome! This makes me very happy, as one of the reasons of my channel is to get more people to play Alkan, and unfairly neglected Liszt pieces

[@orangefruit9166]

​​​@@Medtszkowski oh you a fan too. Take my upvote

[@Medtszkowski]

What does this piece remind you guys of? (Similar pieces, or just general ideas of feelings?)
Personally it reminded me a lot of that one part of the second movement of the concerto also by Alkan.

[@whaijorhujishkomunyk]

Same

[@beseemescavanger1403]

For some reason (I assume the key signature) it reminded me of tge rachmaninoff prelude op. 23 no. 10

[@4candles]

The first piece reminds me of parts of Op.35/7 and his 'Canon', Op.65/3.

[@collinm.4652]

[@whaijorhujishkomunyk]

Alkanthesis

[@Medtszkowski]

Maybe I’ll make a second channel called alkanthesis. If you wanted to work together on something like that?

[@whaijorhujishkomunyk]
