For those who don’t know, Ravel wrote this piece after a poem “Scarbo”. The poem describes a hideous goblin which disappears and reappears at will. In the poem, the writer describes how the goblin will laugh, scratch on the walls, and even grate his nails on the silk of his bed. This piece is often considered one of the most technically difficult pieces ever written. Gotta love Ravel
For those who also don’t know, this entire piece was written based on the poem “gaspard de la nuit” which means “treasurers of the night”. the poem contains three parts, "ondine" "le gibet" then "scarbo", as does maurice ravels composition
A W yes your right, the poem doesn’t have just those three parts. i meant to say the song contains the three parts, based on those three poems (ondine, le gibet, and scarbo). also, your right, gaspard is just a name, but technically the name gaspard means trasurer in french, hence "treasurer of the night".
0:47 admit it, the first time we heard that theme just fade away we were all like "nooooo" then we listened to the piece more and now we're like "yeaaaah"
The fact that a week after he played all the Lizst etude’s he has the balls to play this piece, and knock it out of the park. Seriously this dude is insane.
Scarbo (The poem this piece was based on) I have heard him again and again and seen him too! Scarbo the gremlin. He comes in the dead of the night, when the moon glitters in the sky like a silver shield on an azure banner strewn with golden bees. I have heard his laugh boom from the shadow, and his fingernails grate on the silk of my bed curtains! I have seen him drop from the ceiling pirouette on one foot and roll across the floor Like the spindle of a spinning wheel when a dark witch weaves! And I think he had vanished? No. At such times the gremlin would rise between me and the moon As high and narrow as a gothic steeple - a golden bell swaying like his pointed cap! But then, his body would change, became as blue and translucent as the wax of a taper, his face as pale as candle grease - and suddenly he would be extinguished.
I mean I understand that Traum is a human and they are just wearing a black sweater or something to that effect, but imagining their hands as disembodied is a lot more fun.
One day we will see Traum play all the Hungarian rhaspodys in 19 days and all of us will gain a worst heart attack that when he did the Paganini Etudes Altho.. Very Impressive performance
"Many things in Scarbo are very uncomfortable and hard to play but if you ask me, the real difficulty here is putting in all those pages of tremendous difficulties and still making music out of it." -Ivo Pogorelich
The Alexander Malofeev's interpretation of this piece is simply incredible and brilliant, I've not seen anyone reflect that fury and anxiety so deeply like him
@@sliipegs3441 yes, and you can see and heard in the China competition he (Alexander) plays that piece and other difficult pieces with a great interpretation
I think Traum should start a fundraiser like Twoset once did for his first world tour. It ll be magnificent to listen to this man live. His repertoire is incredible even for a worldclass soloist like Daniil Trifonov, Evgeny Kissin and other geniuses. This art must be spread everywhere.
Initially I have thought that Scarbo was only intended as "the most difficult piano piece to ever exist" and that the musical values of the piece would have been non-existent. I was wrong completely as I rehear the piece, and everything about Scarbo is beautiful and mesmerizing. This makes me convinced that the piece is probably extremely difficult in a sense that not only is the technical requirement being overboard, but the musical structure and interpretation - which probably makes the piece difficult itself.
@@amoryblaine2123 3- Galop In A Minor (Liszt) 2- Paganini Etude no.4 1838 ver. (Liszt) 1- Paganini Etude no.6 1838 ver. (Liszt) The etudes top 1 and top 2 are almost impossible, but I put in my ranking xD
@@SirLouco I meam the etudes are pretty hard but I think not as hsrd as gaspard de la nuit or the piano version of la valse. or for example la contrabandista
@@SirLouco also the more impressionistic pieces from ravel have more difficulty because the chords and scales and arpeggios are often in no clear order. he has very weird complex chords a lot of chromatic tones and stuff.
i always thought the same thing. like, why are you uploading these pieces when you're still relatively unknown? it's insanely impressive, but from a "marketing" perspective (if he actually cares at all anyway) it will be hard to continue to put famous/virtuosic pieces for subscriber specials. talking just in terms of youtube algo. thought there are still more to be sure. but tldr i agree.
Awesome performance. Ravel does capture evil in this piece but for me, as an amateur pianist, the most terrifying thing about this music is looking at the score.
@@xqmf352 no, he didn't. if he did it would sound lightly distorted, or higher pitched, and it would sound like there was no reverb, which his piano has a lot of.
OMG OMG OMG!Thank you so much!I requested some Ravel in your Scriabin Sonata video and i am so happy that u posted this.Very well interpreted and nicely done :).I'll wait for more Ravel,Rach,Scriabin and Bach.Once again stunning erformance :).
I have to say, I like this a lot better than Rousseau's. You seem to have a better grip on the techniques and that removes all the more limitations on your ability to play even more dramatically.
I know in the original poem of Gaspard de la nuit, Scarbo is supposed to be about a malevolent little goblin. But I can't stop myself from imagining Jason Vorhees just pursuing a terrified girl through the woods. So vivid
Hey Traum I have a question. Do you learn and memorize these pieces or sight read them? Secondly, will you play Alkan's etudes? Liszt said that was the only composer who's music he was unconfident to sight read.
not only terrifyingly but extremely difficult containing the most advanced techniques for the piano. it was so hard that even Ravel himself couldn't play it!
That's just astounding and is giving me chills! I could cry right now, but I know what you could upload to make everyone cry: "le gibet". The story of the second movement in "Gaspard de la nuit" is just great and gives the piece an really intense atmosphere. It manages to make me sad every time I even think about it. Keep on making awesome uploads! 😊
I have been watching for a month now. It is crazy to actually know that Traum plays all of these. Most of the videos I click on, aren’t actual people playing the music. I have been playing piano for 10 years (I’m a soft more in high school) so I really understand how hard this actually is! Something that is also crazy is that he learns a 9:00 minute song in 1 day and posts it the next day. I have mad respect for you man!
I wouldn't call it entirely atonal because there is melody in this piece. And top be honest Maurice Ravel was an impressionistic composer who added a lot of colour and tone to his music. Being atonal means you are completely removing the idea of melody and tonal value of the concept. If you like atonal music then you should listen to Arnold Schoenberg, Oliver Messian etc.
first time i met this piece in Rousseau channel.... i loved it from the first note.... i am not expert but this is one of the hardest i have ever seen.... and you played it perfectly.... you are truly virtuoso .... i have no more words :D
TRAUM your goblin was jumping Tim Burton style! 🔥 Percussion, theater, drama, yes please! The cat is out of the bag, now you have to play Ondine. lol ✨✨✨🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹
Woah, outstanding! Just full of adrenaline, excitement & fire! Got to say I was very rudely jolted halfway through by a very intrusive advert- I'd far rather support you by buying a CD or something (I'm guessing all Ravel including La Valse would be you at your best)
Ye or the pavane, such an unashamedly beautiful piece. Would love to hear his interpretation, though I fear he might just rush through it XD. And if not that the second or fifth miroir. I dont really care all that much for the 'loud' Ravel pieces, they definitely sound cool but they often just stress me out.
@@HeartofthePiano to get une barque sur l'ocean is very difficult. Theft hand needs to have a very soft touch yet distinct every note at a very fast pace it's much harder imo
@@petregidea1605 I learnt all of Miroirs as an undergrad- Barque was definitely one of the easiest. I also learnt Gaspard de la Nuit- honestly Barque is not that challenging & fits very easily under the hands. It's so well-written that getting the right textures & softness is reasonably straightforward
Perfect tempo and fingerings! Keeps the anticipation/tension high while making the near-impossible figurations actually doable at that speed! I think Ravel would be pleased by the fact that this artist could do what he couldn't! with regard to latter question: can't compare apples to oranges - a lot depends on the temperament and physiognomy of the performer...
I found Prokofiev Suggestion Diabolique sounds a little bit "darker" and some of the Bartoks masterpieces too! But anyway, You are a brilliant pianist and such a good musician! Thanks for sharing, I have never heard this before 🙂
This is surely one of the hardest pieces composed! And my favourite piece by Ravel too! But I must ask, who is your favourite composer Traum? Anyway excellent job!
I really like your fast-sections interpretation. It is very fast but clear; especially, from swiftly move across the keyboard from 2.53 to the end of first climax in 4.48, it is really awesome. However, the middle section sounds not dark and sinister enough to me. And the fast trilling at 6.06 to 6.16 sounds too bright. Lastly, the built-up to the last climax is as awesome as its peak. I love it. I’d be great to hear you play Ondine and Le Gibet to complete the set.
To watch this is just stupifying ! I had no idea Ravel could compose music of this stature. If l wasn't seeing this , l would never believe it possible to play ! I it does beckon the question could the composer play this ? Traum, your dexterity leaves me speechless !
Which one is more difficult?? 😱 Scarbo or Islamey?????? 😆
Scarbo definitely!!!! Traum you’re the best!
pls do feux follets
Scarbo 😄😁😆
scarbo is more difficult
ps, I love your channel

No.
0:47 sounded so good
How did you read my mind
I always wished that section was longer haha
true HAHA
Idk what’s more scary:
- the piece
- traum’s repertoire
The fact that a week after he played all the Lizst etude’s he has the balls to play this piece, and knock it out of the park. Seriously this dude is insane.
Traum's repertoire for me
HAHAHAHAHAHAH
yes yes
Honestly, Traum could post the duet arrangement of the Sleeping Beauty Waltz with himself playing both parts at once and I’d be like “makes sense.”
About that...
HOW CAN SOMEONE HAVE SUCH A LARGE AND VIRTUOSTIC REPERTOIRE
Probably just recordings lol. Liszt does that too
@@ConcordMass huh? in liszt's time there where no recordings so no he didn't do that.
@@ConcordMass if you have recordings of liszt i would love to see them lol
@TheTage Show Yeah that's is what i wrote
Plot twist: He sightreads all these pieces 😂
Scarbo (The poem this piece was based on)
