Sergei Rachmaninoff: Sonata No. 2 b-flat minor Op. 36 (1931) - Konrad Maria Engel (Yamaha CFX)
00:00 I. Allegro agitato
08:27 II. Lento
15:29 III. Allegro molto
Again, a perspective which might be a bit different. My approach was here, to emphasise more of the sonata's architecture rather than taking too much time for all details, trying to keep everything tighter together in a structural way, so that it's psychological depth can unfold especially in the 2nd movement, and 1st/3rd build almost a monothematic framework.
I'm still not sure, if that was the right way. But maybe the work and it's creator have had too much influence on my confidence and I should just 'step outside' with this version now.:)
Very likely another version will follow in a few years, possibly comparing the much earlier and more circumstantial 1913 edition then.
Many thanks again to Tessmar studios, Ole Bunke and Gerd Finkenstein!

brilliant!!
Beautiful rendition and deep understanding of the work. Bravo!
❤
Great work!
I'm trying to play just one of Hindemith's fuga half as well! Outstanding performance! Danke!
Exquisite performance. I would say that your approach is romantic and this suits the "Sachlicheit" so perfect! Hard to understand that this work is not more appreciated. More, please!
Thanks a lot for your differentiated comment! The second part of Ludus is in preparation for early 2025. Meantime I was actually having lots of fun with his Op. 15 "In einer Nacht" and a romantic affair with Rachmaninov 2nd sonata.:) But may I please state that my approach here wasn't romantic at all but much more following Hindemith's own quote that the meaning and function of music should be "Von Mensch zu Mensch, ehrlich und gut" (From one human to another, honest and true). So, I would absolutely not see this music as a romantic transfiguration of metaphysical, heroic or religious burden - but much more like expressing our very human interests, feelings, insights - in Hindemith's highly developed multi-tonal and polyphonic language. It was very touching to read his little book "Sterbende Gewässer" (Dying waters) from 1963 (!) where he is almost desperately defending "natural, real human" expressions in tonality against "synthetical" music made of serial technique and/or by electrical machines. Maybe his criticism is going much too far there and he was suffering from some kind of postwar desolation. But amongst other aspects it showed me that "Sachlichkeit" could never mean callousness in any way. Like it is actually obvious when you look at the paintings of Dix, Grosz, Beckmann, Woods etc.
Toller Lehrer
Bravo
Love it.
Super!
So beautiful Konrad. A revelation. Warm Wishes, Ayşe Göknur Shanal
Was für eine Meisterleistung, großartig!
Ich mag Ihren sehr direkten und fossierten Anschlag!
A masterpiece!
Wunderschöne Wiedergabe dieser vielseitigen Sonate. Unglaublich differenziert im Klang, vom feinsten Piano zu kräftigem, aber nie grobem Forte.
Vielen Dank auch hier!:) Bald gibt es mehr... Mozart und Bach sollten bis Ende des Jahres fertig sein. Herzlichen Gruß!
Dass man ein derart komplexes Werk auswendig lernen kann, ist für mich selber absolut unvorstellbar und findet meine restlose Bewunderung!
Wie schön, dass hier der Ludus tonalis gespielt wird! Ein wundersames Werk, das ich sehr liebe, aber leider noch zu wenig kenne. Herr Engel hat sich offenbar damit tief verbunden und gibt es „von innen heraus“ sehr überzeugend wieder. Vielen Dank!
Freut mich sehr, wenn Sie die Aufnahme mögen. Genau das war mein Anliegen, diese Musik aus der bisweilen etwas "hölzernen" Ecke zu holen und dem Ganzen viel Leben einzuhauchen. Danke für Ihre herzlichen Worte.
@@KMEConcert-uo7sf Das Herausholen aus der „hölzernen Ecke“ ist bestens gelungen. Es ist ein ausgesprochen lebendiges Spiel!
Groß!
einfach wow!
