Показать описание
Gutmann (1819-1882) was born in 1819 in Heidelberg. In 1834 he moved to Paris to take lessons with Chopin.

He soon became Chopin’s favourite pupil, a touring pianist and the dedicatee of the Scherzo in C sharp minor, Op. 39. In the Parisian Salle Pape, in March 1838, he performed together with Chopin, Zimmerman and Alkan, playing the Allegretto and the Finale of Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7, arranged by Alkan for eight hands and two pianos.

Next to Fontana, Gutmann was the main copyist of Chopin’s works. He belonged to the closest circle of Chopin’s entourage and was a devoted companion to his master in the last years of the latter’s life. In 1866 he travelled to Egypt, Syria and Palestine and after the Franco-Prussian War moved to Florence. In 1880, he settled in La Spezia, where he died in 1882.

Didn't need to be told a student of Chopin after listening. Heavily influenced would be an understatement!

No doubt professionals know better than we, simple mortals: we listen without analyzing complexities in the composition structure. Is it our loss? We listen to sounds and how they connect in melodies, harmonies, tempo and tone. If we are lucky, these sounds are brought to us by a skillful artist who hears and feels what the composer and we, listeners, feel. Thank you very much, Mr. Gamma.

Almost sounds like a lost nocturne of Chopin's. Unsurprising that the composer was a student of his. It sounds just like him. Which is amazing because I absolutely love him, and this.

D'accordo, l'influenza di Chopin, ma qua' ci sono interi fraseggi di Chopin!

Данный ноктюрн вторичен по отношению к Шопену по всем параметрам: по фактуре аккомпанемента (см. Шопен, Ноктюрн ре-бемоль мажор Op. 27, №2),
по гармоническому плану, по строению мелодии, по тому, как вкраплены в ткань мелодии мелизмы и как в моменты стремительных кульминаций, тут же, стремительно - с вершины вниз - низвергаются гаммообразные потоки мелких длительностей.
В общем, человек, который знаком с Шопеном, не будет воспринимать подражание Шопену как серьёзную заявку на титул композитора.
Это плагиатор.
Сравниваем с Шопеном:
