Alkan's Symphony for Solo Piano

[Max]

I prefer Hamelin, but he didn't record a lot of op.39.

[mazeppa]

Dre recorded 8 out of 12. that IS a lot.

[Comme_le_Vent]

indeed, i hope he plays da rest someday

[virtuoso_735]

Only 8 out of 12? That's a lot, as it is quite an achievement for a pianist, but I thought he recorded all of it.

he recorded the big ones


Concerto (3) + Symphony (4) + Le Festin d'Sope (1)

Now i actually like Da Gibbonataur more than Dre in da Symphony.

Gib saves all his ammunition fo da finale, where he detonates himself like a palestinian suicide bomber. In fact, His otha 3 movements are total shit.

Dre on de otha hand, plays the otha 3 movements so wikidly that by comparison da finale iz actually a let-down. His insane speed in da minuet only makes it worse.

[Comme_le_Vent]

hahaha, da finale is evidently yo fave mvt


mine is da 1st

True. I made a CD (might still have it) with Gibs Finale and Hamelins 1-2-3.

[Comme_le_Vent]

hahaha, dat is a blatant diss to dre

dre's studio rec is actually ma joint fave - dont diss da style

[mazeppa]

Actually Max, to follow up Dre's minuet, you need a 3'30 midi file with perfect accents+dynamics.

[Max]

True, true.

Now I think I prefer Hamelins, it sounds more relaxed, makes the little grace note things in the left hand sound cooler.

[Comme_le_Vent]

RELAXED?!!?!?!?

dats whats known as CONTROLLED FURY

[Max]

Yeah...haha that's what I meant.

[Comme_le_Vent]

den say it, or do u be trin to provoke ma fury and inspire me to greater heights of FURY in ma own playin?

if da latter - respec

[Max]

The latter

How much has Smith recorded from op.39?
