Oh, yes, the only piano concerto I could actually play! I already knew it from the score video of the piano reduction fyrexianoff uploaded like 10 years ago.
Very nice edition, I like your quality of presentation a lot. I'm sure it's an immense amount of work to produce these large scores, but it shows in the final product.
I am so grateful for these revelations from the hidden past. There seems to be so much talent that has been neglected and overshadowed by a few dominating men who cast too long a shadow. There is much hidden treasure to be dug up. The fact that a woman is responsible for this composition only enhances the value of this rediscovery. Thank you.
yes, the first movement is very fun with some beautiful interluding segments. The reason I think I love Tailleferre's and Messiaen's music so much is that their music tends to be so joyful (and that they're exceptional orchestrators).
Interesting flavors going on especially in the third moment. Good to hear something in compound meter. The cadenza was really nice, had a steady build to the climax and smooth transition to the recapitulation.
A very nicely constructed piece. There are no moments of divine inspiration but it is pleasantly engaging throughout. Thanks for posting. Neoclassic for sure. I find it interesting that she wrote for trumpet in D which is a very Baroque thing to do.
Clearly a fan of Prokofiev and Copland. A lot of high-octane compressions. Excellent, if not overdrawn orchestration. Its playability is probably the most charming facet. The adagio is lovely with memorable sections for orchestra. Well-written and uniquely satisfying. The oboist is this recording is often out of time, but we all have our off days. Brava, Germaine!
Really enjoyable! In addition to Bach and Stravinsky, I also hear a bit of gamelan, though maybe the influence was through Debussy (Poulenc didn't hear gamelan music until 1931).
Written the same year as Rhapsody in Blue! One hundred years ago. If I didn’t know the composer, I would have guessed Milhaud. Very close, I think. It’s a bit drier than Poulenc somehow. Very pleasant representative of Les Six.
A composer may make revisions at the publishers or on their copy, so a manuscript is not the last word. Beautifully played. It's very similar to parts of the Harp Concertino, but moreover like the music of Ernesto Halffter.
En vous baladant dans les prés du présent, vous pouvez cueillir des bouquets de fleurs folles et improbables, revenir avec de somptueux extraits de l'architecture sonore de cette musicienne sensible et écorchée et dire que vous gagnez parfois du temps à ignorer tant de ces musiques "new age" pour enfin gagner en sérénité
Do you mean this? www.loc.gov/item/molden.3540 It was one of my references when I engraved the score, though only as a "tie-breaker" between the other 2 sources.
What an astonishing combination of baroque/classical and modern. I love both genres but I'm not sure I can say I like this piece. It's a very distinct and interesting take on music though !
Surpringly original, naturally flowing, lightfooted, honest music.
I'm a fan of this composer. I discovered her a few years ago and keep discovering new works. Thank goodness for TH-cam!
Fantastic orchestration! The third movement really is wonderful.
Its an absolute travesty that this masterpiece has only been recorded ONCE... insane. Also!!! Happy 100th anniversary to this stunning work!

It's NOT a gender issue!
@@nonenoneonenonenone Yes it is -- only only a gender issue, but it is definitely and issue
Huge respect for your work Cmaj7. Thank you for posting this interesting gem.
Has to be one of my favourite piano concertos ever, I just keep coming back to it!
Its an absolute travesty that this masterpiece has only been recorded ONCE... insane.
Interesting! It's tonal, pretty active and bouncy
Bouncy is good descriptor, a bouncy gait comes to mind for sure.

The orchestration really is exceptional
Wonderful to have this with the score, thank you for posting.

Never clicked on a video so fast
I accidently had this scheduled for AM instead of PM (why I generally use a 24 clock...). I guess it worked for you.
What fun -- how fresh! And marvelously French.
This is a delightful piece of music! I don't know why it isn't more prominent.

Sono Italiano ... a me ricorda Poulenc ma è molto frettolosa
Seriously? She might have heard some Prokofiev, but Copland had done nothing signficant. You remarks are beyond all sense.
@@nonenoneonenonenone Good point.
@@NathanaelSaintCyr Stravinsky then, I guess
And Milhaud too!
Videos like this is part of the reason why I'm hungry to get my hands on Dorico. Beautiful as always!
Amazing uplifting counterpoint ty uploader
7:32 - 8:15 and 13:33 - 15:27 are breathtaking
At my first hearin I soon went to Stravinsky's Petrouchka, this Concerto is a true jewel.
Such a fun piece to work on and perform! I only had the chance to play it with a second piano, unfortunately. Still worth it :)
cool concerto! the cadenza reminds me of the beggining of Ravel's La Vallee des Cloches, but with thirds instead of fourths
Exceptional composition! I will research her music more now!
3+ years later, the genius of this work is still hard to fully comprehend.
she was very close friend and pupil of Ravel
Sounds a bit like neo-classical Stravinsky...? Lots of fun whatever it is.
My thoughts exactly! Never heard this before, or the composer - the beauty of youtube.
^
Sounds like Baroque mixed with Stravinsky's newness
@@fan_of_euler Bach + Stravinsky
This is surprisingly late classical sounding for an early 20th century piece.
Wonderfully light hearted. She is so "French" in her sensibility.
YOUR PFP IS MOVING WHAAAATTT
It actually has been since April Fools last year. It's just only visible in some limited subset of youtube.
Cmaj7 it shows up that way in my notifications XD is it a gif?
@@SaxandRelax Yeah it's a gif
The trumpet solo in counterpoint @6:45 ❤

Le second mouvement a des air de mario galaxy et kingdom heart 7:33
Magnifique
2:19
The texture and instrumentation reminds me of the Brandenburg concertos.
これはいい曲ですね。
ストラビンスキーかと思ってしまいました。
そうですね。
すごいです！
Ce deuxième mouvement... tellement reveur
Just gonna comment to make it 60…
Mvmt. 1 & 3 remind me quite of Prokofiev 3...
I'm sorry but HOW?!
6:47
Do you have any idea if there is any way to find the version for Piano and twelve instruments? Was it ever published?
Do you mean this? www.loc.gov/item/molden.3540 It was one of my references when I engraved the score, though only as a "tie-breaker" between the other 2 sources.
@@Cmaj7 yes! I dug through and at least have some people to ask questions of if we want to do it.
Thank you!
@@Cmaj7 omg i love your stuff
What an astonishing combination of baroque/classical and modern. I love both genres but I'm not sure I can say I like this piece. It's a very distinct and interesting take on music though !
It's just basically a Hannon exercise on the mode of Bach
Hanon exercises against a very ordinary orchestral accompaniment.
What a stupid comparison. And illiterate.
@@violamateo he has a point though. I thought something similar. It's still fun to listen to.
