Just listen to the grim but ultimately triumphant last Prelude or any of the three Fugues and you will hear the unmistakable voice of Shostakovich. But to enjoy it, you will have to be willing to reconcile his 20 th century voice with the voice of Bach.

The Classical Piano Music of Robert Schumann: The Carnaval | Spinditty

The nine Etudes-Tableaux of Op. Indeed they are etudes, and they are very difficult to play. We also know that Rachmaninov revealed programs of some of these etudes to Resphigi, the Italian composer. However, in the ultimate analysis it is quite irrelevant how much these so called programs or visual images inspired or governed Rachmaninov's imagination, because to quote the composer himself: It is quite enough to know that Rachmaninov wrote these pieces for himself, to serve his immense pianistic ability and to be varied enough to express his intense, moody personality.

Each of these etudes seems to concentrate on different technical aspects of piano playing - the first on fleet fingers and tremolos versus rapid repeated chords, the third also on fleet fingers but in a lighter setting. The fifth is the most often played. It is a dramatic tone poem creating large sonorities. Number eight is a gently rolling pastel colored poem and the ninth is a gigantic march. It pleases me very much to see you mention your interest in seeing more. I have a number of other recordings of pieces I'd love to put up this way and--theoretically--could go on for years writing this kind of thing.

Plan on seeing a few more through the summer, and thanks so very much for taking the time to read and listen! I would love to see more classical pieces explained in such an easy-to-follow manner. I can appreciate the piece so much more, now! Thanks for the amazing walkthrough. If I can get a non-music lover to listen to a few bits, then it's work well done. Thanks so much for stopping by!

I don't even particularly like music but I think the hub is beautiful. I might even listen to some bits! Hi again wayseeker, you're tops in my book. And, thanks for mentioning me as a source on Schumann's bio. Additionally, you're also a very talented artist. I don't know if I've ever mentioned that? Thanks so much for taking the time to read and listen. I had not thought of this being a useful resource for humanities courses, but that makes sense. I appreciate your positive feedback so very much! I would love to have had this resource for the humanities courses I've taught.

You have done an excellent job of pointing out the interpretations of the various movements, and your clever art illustrations are so well executed.

Schumann, Robert Alexander

I'm in awe of your talent! Voted up and up!

Thanks again for that video fix note! I replaced that video with one that had a correction in it, and I apparently forgot to put in the new link. That will make everything flow much better! Thanks for stopping in. After working through playing it over the course of several years work, it's definitely a personal favorite. Thanks for the cue on the videos--I'll double check them all.

I love what you did in yours and it contains some great info that I couldn't have covered better. Thanks so much for stopping in!

This is such a wonderfully laid out hub, but some of the videos do not play. I've always loved Carnival. It's a creative, beautiful piece.

Robert Schumann: Carnaval, Op. 9; Fantasie, Op. 17

Hauptmarkt 5 D - zwickau: Hauptmarkt 5, Zwickau, Germany. Preambule This is the opening fanfare to the carnival, followed by a kind of episodic survey of some of the moods one might encounter there. Valse Noble No carnival is complete without the noble waltz. The site is also available in several languages.

Please use the dropdown buttons to set your preferred options, or use the checkbox to accept the defaults. What a pleasure it is! His Carnaval has great warmth and gentleness, along with appropriate doses of high spirits and antic, even slapstick humour. Extremely original in concept, this interpretation is seasoned throughout with a unique tempo rubato that is both apt and uncannily subtle.

Carnaval is, in fact, essentially a masked ball on a much larger scale than Papillons. According to the terms of the will, Walt Harnisch will inherit the bulk of the estate, on condition that he fulfil successively, and for a specified length of a time, the various professional roles that had been assumed during his life by Van der Kable himself. With every mistake he makes, Walt will sacrifice a part of the estate. Thus it is that he finds himself having to act as a piano tuner for a day, under the watchful eye of a notary.
