Bortkiewicz has a lot of musical jewels which are desperately underrated.....the second piano concerto has no problem to stand in front of Rachmaninov, Chopin or Liszt 😀

[@Pablo-gl9dj]

Rate them higher then. And if his concerto stands in front of Chopin it will get run over.

@@Pablo-gl9djvoglio ascoltarlo

@@goldberg72 enjoy

[@paulcapaccio9905]

I agree. Too much Chopin. Bortkiewicz. Was a great composer

[@paulcapaccio9905]

Much of Chopin is starting to get very dated now ! Take his first valse op. 18. For one. Don’t tell me we need it today. Talk about dated

[@danielaurelmuller]

The etude is beautiful, harder than chopins op 25 no 6 too

This is the first video that joins audio and music sheet of this suite. Thanks 😎

[@djokowitjaksono3371]

Love it

[@hughmackay5200]

This will feature in a piano recital of mine.

[@kpunkt.klaviermusik]

Fun fact: when Bortkiewicz composed his opus 3 in the year 1906 he was already 29 years old.

[@wilhelmberger9925]

Yes, but he was not alone. Roussel, Kiel and Kirchner(op. 2) wrote their op. 1 also with 29.. just to name a few.

[@msgrace713]

That's why it shows so much depth and maturity

[@patricknyman727]

Feels sort of like Blumenfeld

[@Dylonely_9274]

Nice.

[@smb123211]

Yes, Bortkiewicz was influence by other composers but so what? Every composer was influenced by others. He was probably the last great Romantic before "modern" music rose. Hearing this I think of Brahms (perhaps due to the pianist).

[@오버워치갓겜-w5m]

nice

[@LeoN-bs8vo]

He seems to have been more influenced by Chopin, Liszt, and Rachmaninoff, but this work includes some melody of musical nationalism.

[@calebhu6383]

The texture in No.1 screams Brahms.

[@RaptorT1V]

No.4 is like Chopin's Etude Op. 10 No. 8 in F major (same key)

[@Xyriak]

Why is he so unknown

[@thaisoh]

Like Rachmaninov !

[@goldberg72]

First time prokofiev

[@beecolor]

Op.3 is a little too young...

[@gameclips5734]

Definitely some of the more forgettable bortkiewicz pieces
