Agreed! I picture a man (or woman) ambling down a sidewalk whistling (the treble noted evoke whistling to me), their heart filled with happiness after admitting to their crush their true feelings-and having those admissions requited. I also love the violas, cellos, and double basses playing the F-Ab-Db to E-G-C at 5:59. 😃 RIP Kapustin! Your music shall live on!
Kapustin's music is absolutely outstanding which would classify as postmodernism jazz, a mixture of rock and roll with boogie, ragtime and Gershwin streak. Can be used for a movie soundtrack theme😉😘
This one-movement concerto was composed in 1990. Structurally, it very much resembles a violin concerto by Alexander Glazounov. The similarity is that a slow lyrical episode is wedged between the exposition and the development, after which the recapitulation and the soloist's cadenza follow. But then, instead of the expected coda, there is a large concluding section (both in this concerto and in Glazounov's) which is perceived as a finale. This last section is written in sonata rondo form, which is also characteristic of a finale. In the middle of this section (in this concerto) one can hear music from the lyrical episode, but now in rondo tempo. In the main and concluding sections, thanks to the presence of the drums in the score for chamber orchestra, one can discern the well-nigh forgotten disco style. As for real jazz, there is remarkably little of it: only at cue 23 of the piano part and at cue 49 of the soloist's cadenza. Probably the hardest place in the solo part is at cues 64 and 65, and perhaps also the long concluding passage. As soon as Kapustin finished composing the concerto, he learned to play it for performance, but because of the well-known situation in Russia the early 90's he was not able either to perform or to record it. Only much later it was performed by the wonderful Bulgarian pianist Ludmil Angelov and a Spanish chamber orchestra. (tutti.co.uk)
Reminds me of prokofievs piano concerto no 1 Aside from the massive conclusive movement it also has a slow passage wedged inbetween exposition and development !
This man's music never fails to deliver such wonderful chords and chord changes and progressions that sound so sweet and juicy. I apologize for not knowing the musical terms
Where would all be without music? Imagine our lives without it? I heard that prisoners on Alcatraz (which I see out my window here) had to live without it.
A fantastic piece most clearly understood by the soloist Ludmil Angelov and the whole orchestra in a magnificent live performance. The piano entries at 57 and 74 bringing in the most brilliant development of the main thematic material are so well played especially the clear G at the start of the second exposition at 74 ... excellent stuff that needs more regular performance! Thank you.
This peice was made in the 80s lol I’m sure kapustin was heavily inspired by Japanese jazz fusion and American disco and obviously big band and 80s music has a lot of big band
There done in such a way it’s hard to notice all the wrong notes aswell ! It’s cool to do atonal stuff but sometimes composers overdo it imo but here he does it so tastefully!
Wow thank you so much! One of the recordings had been taken down somehow. If you could upload the Concerto no.3 somehow with note, that would be awesome
It is very interesting reading the comments. My impression is that it is very thick with ideas and convolutions,and yeah the sound engineering is not right,but I wonder if Glenn Gould could have really pulled out all the voices without reducing the tempi to give it a more understandable thrust ! It is brilliant,sparkling piano writing that is not found these days and sonorous.
Yeah sometimes the instruments are hard to here and I couldn’t here a couple violin Melodies also it would be nice to hear a slower tempo on this some day and also this peice is thick in a good way lol like he makes it all work in a beautiful artistic way
@@dogacbezduz3539 you have an incredible teacher, very lucky! Please tell him there are thousands of people waiting to finally hear a live Kapustin piano concerto in London!!
Repent and put your trust in Jesus. We've all sinned and deserve Hell. Jesus died on the cross and was resurrected, defeating death and sin. Since we broke the law, Jesus paid our fine. Since he paid it, we can be let go. We must repent and trust in Jesus to be saved. Romans 3:23 John 3:16 Romans 6:23 1 Corinthians 15:3,4 Revalation 3:20 Romans 10:13
Wish the orchestral writing here was more effective. With few exceptions, the strings are nearly inaudible most of the time- and serve only to muddy the piano texture when present when the piano is playing, which is basically constantly. And even in the few cases in which the orchestra plays alone, the whole effect is really opaque and thick. I don't see why this wouldn't make a much better solo piano work.
I think this is more an effect of poor mixing/sound engineering than poor orchestration. Also the pianist (as most soloists tend to do) ignores the dynamics and plays forte most of the time.
you should listen to the newer recording of this piece by frank dupree! it's a much better recording than this (both in sound engineering and interpretation) and it really opened my ears to this piece.
@@unnamed_boi i personally think this version has a lot more power, and is more rhythmic too. i cant put my finger on why, but i just cannot seem to jam out with the dupree recording anywhere near as much as this one. i think the dupree is just a little too fast for my personal taste!
@@Nooticus i disagree a lot on this recording having more power and rhythm. compare for example the climaxes at 18:49 to 19:20 in this recording and dupree's. on this recording the orchestra didn't sync with the drums, and it's just not as impactful as dupree's recording, which has spot on rhythm and really hits these climaxes. but hey, no one's stopping you if you still like this recording better sooo yeah
this is a good music,but this is definitely pure pop music, definitely not classical music, because even Gershwin is much ,much much much more classical than It.
I never thought a drum kit would be so perfect for a piano concerto
Lots of big bands have drum kits and this is pretty big band inspired and drum kit works very well for jazz lol
rest in peace...kapustin passed away yesterday :(
He passed away on Thursday. RIP Maestro Kapustin :(
12:50 this transition into the cadenza before the restatement is just… … … wow
5:43 is just so beautiful, like literally butterflies

Funny how you say that when Kapustin’s Toccata Op.8 was used in a Soviet movie in the 60s!
Totally awesome! I wish Gershwin could have heard this.

Still prefer Kasputin to Prokofiev as the melody themes are more refreshing to listen to. The beat is rhythmical too!

I hear echoes of the mid-20th century American composer Roy Harris’ work in some of the slower sections. Wonder if Kapustin is familiar with his work
which works by Harris would you recommend for a beginner?
Harris’ most famous piece is his Symphony No. 3. that is a good place to start.

How about the strict form?
The 1st part is a Sonata-allegro
The 2nd part is a Rondo-sonata (which at the same time is also the coda of the 1st part).
帅哥 It’s everything but pop music.
帅哥 我們不能用「聽起來⋯」去畫那個界線,這樣我們完全沒辦法定義「古典音樂」(其實他聽起來很古典老實跟你說。
這個邏輯就像我們不能用「因為有什麼樂器」來定義這是不是古典音樂一樣。
不會因為加了吉他、爵士鼓他就不是古典音樂。
一個例子,拉威爾。他用了許多擴充和諧,讓音樂聽起來非常exotic但他卻還是一個100趴的古典音樂作曲家。
因為他還是照著「格式」在創作。
我認為真正可以去討論的是他的「格式」,而依此來說這確實是一個古典音樂作品。
Pop了話我們應該會說他會有些特性像是「重複的簡單和諧進行」「有高潮的存在」「存在人聲,以人聲為主要軸心」。這首concerto完全完全不是pop。
抱歉我的中文不太好,我中文逐年退步中😁。
Pop? you mean the Bee Gees or Led Zeppelin? ha! really dude, this is most definitely not pop
it sounds pop but the structure is not pop
Kapustin’s piano concertos are so kitsch… piano solo works are much more better than these
