Показать описание
One of my favorite Rachmaninoff Etudes. The Op. 39, No. 3 in fis moll/F♯ minor / Allegro molto. An incredibly complex étude, tone-wise. While it starts off with an angry, frenetic feel... there are some truly beautiful moments scattered throughout the piece. Hope you`ll like it and enjoy! :)

The Études-Tableaux ("study pictures"), Op. 39 is the second set of piano études composed by Sergei Rachmaninoff. They are even fuller, more finely textured and darker than the first set.
The title Etudes-Tableaux / picture etudes was apparently coined by Rachmaninoff, although this form is not unique to him. It is possible that the Transcendental Etudes of Liszt served as a forerunner to the Etudes-Tableaux. Each piece presents a pianistic problem, in the tradition of the etude. In addition to this, an extra-musical idea is implied, although Rachmaninoff was reluctant to reveal any program associated with the Etudes-Tableaux.

He stated, "I do not believe in the artist disclosing too much of his images. Let them paint for themselves what it most suggests."

The Etudes-Tableaux were the last works Rachmaninoff composed in Russia. Author of "Rachmaninoff: His Life and Times", Robert Matthew-Walker, writes that they mark the virtual end of the nineteenth-century tradition of virtuoso writings of the great composer-pianists. He further states that Opus 39 is a hidden set of variations on the composers idée-fixe, the Dies irae, parts of the plainchant being quoted directly in all of the nine studies, particularly obviously in the first five. He adds that in these compositions Rachmaninoff seems to be writing less in the Russian tradition and more in the Central and East-European tradition.

The entire collection contains a vivid rhythmic life of its own. A different harmonic language including modal harmonies is used and can be compared to that of the Third Concerto.

Every time I watch your good videos, first I enjoy your beautiful playing, secondly when I read the comments, I am really surprised to see your humility.
In our country, anyone who achieves a small reputation loses his originality, but it is commendable that despite your popularity, you modestly respond to comments!!😍♥️

Technique, technique, and technique! Incredible. Something I can only dream of. I once told my Russian-dancer-lady friend that Rachmaninov should be listened to in a warm bubble bath with champagne. She agreed!

So many beautiful and unique inner voices. Certainly one of the best recorded versions of this etude... has a golden age vibe to it.

I love the video editing on this one too.

I feel like this song displays stress and then giving up or moving on. It’s quite pretty.

It's all ace, but the three concurrent melodic lines during 0:13-0:25 are magic.

Thank you for this instructive, exceptional, and beautiful recording. In the piece's introduction, the descending chords of the right hand (and its complicated polyrhythmic relationship with the left hand) are exceptionally difficult for me to perform. I could perhaps play this fluently at 50% of your speed. Did you find this a challenge, too? And if so, I would be grateful for some advice on how to play it so briskly. Thanks!
