(TEASER) Brahms (arr. Busoni) - Herzlich tut mich verlangen, Chorale Prelude Op. 122/10

Igor Levit’s teaser video for “Brahms (arr. Busoni) - Herzlich tut mich verlangen, Chorale Prelude Op. 122/10” is from his new album “Encounter” which is released on 11 September on Sony Classical. It is a very personal double album marked by a desire for encounter and togetherness. The program includes rarely played arrangements of J.S. Bach and Johannes Brahms by Ferruccio Busoni and Max Reger, as well as Palais de Mari - Morton Feldman’s final work for piano.

The 33-year-old once again steps beyond the limits of the pure piano repertoire: in the Busoni transcriptions of Bach’s chorale preludes and the late Brahms, which are rarely heard as complete cycles, Levit assumes the role of an organist who fills vast church spaces. In Johannes Brahms’s “Vier ernste Gesänge,” he lends instrumental eloquence to overcome the torments of fearing death. On the other hand, the gentle shimmer produced from its very few notes makes Morton Feldman's extremely quiet work for piano, “Palais de Mari” (1986), the epitome of a sensuous, transcendental realm of possibilities.
International Release date: 11. September 2020
Video producer: Boris Fromageot

Beautiful. Bravo Igor Levit. His Pianissimo is something to be witnessed live. He has not only excellent technique - as one expects from a professional pianist - but also incredible “feel”. What a talent.

Thanks very much for this new discovery (for me). Beautifully played, with lots of restraint & great musicality. I hear Horowitz in the background ....
