That first violinist clearly liked it a lot.

get you someone who looks at you the way the concertmaster looks at Kissin :3

[ParsifalChannel]

I didn't know he was a composer. That's an excellent composition. Bravo!

[koreboredom]

I don't know how he manages to make such a dissonant melody so catchy. Just one hearing got it stuck in my head for the entirety of my class.

[johannrufinatscha]

I remember when he was a wunderkind. I'm so glad to see his genius proved itself.

[kliberalsing]

Great character piece, probably the most "easy-listening" dodecaphonic composition I've heard. Now this is way better than many other attempts being made by other 21st century pianist-composers (including my own bad, but honest attempts). This is first class, and it's inspiring to have someone who used to only be known as a pianist, paving the way of the future with original new compositions. Keep up the excellent work, Maestro Kissin! I look forward to hearing and studying more of your music.

From time to time I come back and rewatch this performance. and every time the piece itself is still invariably enjoyable, amusing and entertaining, and so is the reaction of the violinist behind Kissin.

[Miinu_km]

Love this composition!! Pure musical genius...

[michaelshark]

I think it is a wonderful work that has alot of very interesting elements.
I look forward to hearing more of his composition. I have been blessed to see him many times in concert and loved every performance.

[toothlesstoe]

I hear strong strains of Schulhoff in this, and I fucking love it with a passion.

[rebeccavian]

This is the tango that Gomez and Morticia Addams probably dance to 😂

[utvpoop]

Maestro Kissin making composition success yet again. Check also his Toccata.

Let me give this video a like!




And now let's watch it...

Es una genialidad.
Ademas de ser un gran pianista, sus composiciones son magistrales.
Grande Kissin.

[carlostaberner]

Yo no soy muy fan de la música dodecafónica, pero he de reconocer que este "tango" suena bien y es muy original. Gran interpretación, por otra parte.

[demetriusgiovannisoares]

The resemblance to Bartok's sonata SZ 80 is amazing

[seriica]

he should compose more pieces and also a piano concerto, that would be awesome!

[ankitabose]

Is that Noah Bendix-Balgley of Berlin Phil who's looking at Kissin with such admiration?

[BarroqueSpirit]

Esencia y Evolución del Tango. Y lo mejor aún, es la primera vez que el dodecafonismo suena bellamente!!! Felicitaciones Buen Genio EvGeny!!! Maravilla de persona y músico!!!!

[tsmiguel]

I think that Stravinsky liked tango music very much.
