JSngry Posted September 8, 2016 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 Need to rewatch after the sun goes down. Daylight seems to divert from my ability to really focus on most of these pieces, as tbe demarcations between beginning, middle, and end are kinda oblique sometimes. Not talking about Threnody either, that one is a warhouse by now, or at least how I came to know it, which was most every comp student and other "new mudic" person pimping it to anybody who would listen (and I would, and still wiill, when the occasion calls for it). Talking about the later works, strong melodic cells, strong developments of the, but without a deeper focus than I was able to muster today with all the sunlight outside, disengagingly disorienting in that evrrything starts to sound like a transition to and end that never arrives, or like an ending that had no beginning, something like that. But that's me, I know. Other times have had quite different outcomes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Lark Ascending Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 (edited) Can't quite work out if I've heard these pieces in the past; or just on the previous track. Edited September 9, 2016 by A Lark Ascending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Lark Ascending Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 (edited) Disc 1 of the latter - 48, 90, 56 Spotify for the first three - if I'd had that at 16! Edited September 9, 2016 by A Lark Ascending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balladeer Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 Soyeon Kate Lee - Scriabin piano music - Sonate fantaise, Impromptus, Nocturnes (Naxos) Lesser-known works. But if you dig especially Scriabin´s earlier music like me it´s a real treat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny that you mention Fassbaender. I've eyed that one too. Love her voice. Popp has never grabbed my ear. Maybe I should give her Schubert a try.
