Enjoyed the mini dissertation. Is also my understanding that Scarlatti would pair Sonatas not only in the same key, but also in the parallel key. I still often do this.

Wait a second. You mentioned E flat minor. The first prelude that you played was number 13 in G flat major. Number 14 is an E flat minor. Confused me for a second!

Skriabin and Rachmaninoff hates each other

I really enjoyed this series! I've been curious about Salieri ever since I learned about what actually happened instead of the plot of Amadeus, especially since I've started taking music lessons.

Dziękuję, zawsze chciałam usłyszeć oryginał. Bardzo ładny utwór. To takie piękne.🌹

Very much enjoyed this video, thank you. You mention Scarlatti was influenced by guitar which of course he would have been submerged under in Spain. Later Spaniards, Albenz and Granados, would be very influenced by along with Scarlatti, none would (could?) actually write for the instrument. However the music of all three is enormously popular with guitarists today. Perhaps paradoxically, Scarlatti's great keyboard music may be less accessible to players and audiences as it cannot be accessed in manageable groupings that are meaningful.

Great video. Regards from Weimar, Germany.

I very much appreciate your videos. Busoni is one of my favorite classical music personalities.

This is a pure delight - for me a discovery. I had encountered his name in decades gone by, and only knew a smattering of his pedagogy. This fleshes out that encounter immensely. Thank you for your research and playing and convivial sharing.🙏

Wonderful to be introduced to a female composer, thank you! 🎉🎉 Am i crazy or is the piece you featured almost Mozaŕtean?😮

Thus is so well done! Great information! Thank you so much for compiling this.

Why do you pronounce Werther "VeyrTEYR"? It's pronounced VERter.

Thank you so much, it was beautiful .

Miss you

💗💓💞💕❣️💖💘💝

I have performed the stabat Mater a 10. So, so hard. So beautiful.

could you please expain the pairings of the sonatas you executed ? Particularly, the sonatas K.491 and K.102 . I cannot find any source of these pairings.

Wonderful Wonderful. Thanks. Please discuss and enlighten on Chopin’s contributions which were misrepresented as small or irrelevant by many. Why.

Thank you. Instant subscription.

Well done! I am a relative newcomer when it comes to exposure to Scriabins' ouevre, thank God I am aware of the depth and genius of his artistic output. I am particularly enthralled re: his mysticism and your presentation outlining the use of his 'mystic chord' was excellent! Keep up the superb work!

that was beautiful thank you so much!

Such a underrated chanel helped me alot with understanding this piece, ive learnt it and came here it opend my eyes alot Edit: i subbed 👍

Brazil, when she was born, was an independent country from Portugal (1822 ) it was an Empire on its own not Portuguese. ( Try to say it Shee-kinha ) ch sounds sh in português 😉

Great. As I do some synthesis for piano, as former piano student, this just inspired me to write some small pieces that will have a sarcastic spirit, dedicated to the silly puppets politicians of my country, Greece.

Loved this feature on Debussy, especially the connection between the teenage Debussy's musical development and your teenage students' performative development. Debussy's craft and art matured considerably, to say the least, as will your students. Bravo!

I really enjoyed your report on Wanda Landowska. I am French and grew up in St Leu-la- Forêt (that’s the full name) about 16 miles north of Paris. She is still an hero there. I have several of her old LPs. She had an outstanding school there that the Nazis destroyed. She was an outstanding artist, one of a kind. A hero or mine, too.

Wow that's amazing😍

You should make a video about Messiaens 8 preludes. They are fantastic pieces that are not well-known. Love your stuff!

Thank you for this video! With his Debussy set alone, Mr. Ericourt has been one of my very favorite pianists. I have been trying to find any official/unofficial recordings he may have left besides the Debussy set and a waltz compilation on Kapp, but unsuccessful... I can only assume there might be some recorded archives at the music institutes where he taught or at the radio stations in the cities where he held recitals. Would you have any info or insight on his additional recordings (or anything you would like to share about him)? Thanks again!

Here on UA-cam I keep hearing this wayward version of the crossed hands story. D Scarlatti was always somerhing of a skeletal character; it was well known that as his regal patron and pupil's midriff began to expand along with her skill that Scarlatti tactfully began to lay aside the crossing of hands which had begun to be unwieldy for her to accomplish with her former elegance. (And, now I think of it, as the baroque age was getting tired it was the age of elegance which was gathering pace.) But yes- Scarlatti has been my hero since I first met his sonatas in my early teens. He is in a class of his own!

It's a strange fact that the movie Amadeus made Salieri famous to most non musicians and falsely created an image of him that is totally incorrect.

Wanda was dismissed 😂far too soon for what she did for music after she died!

O Choro é criação Carioca, não brasileira.

Fabulous music. Thanks, Rick.

An enjoyable and informative musical topic on composer Domenico Scarlatti's sonatas compositions. He lived in the period of the Baroque fathers, enriching his harpsichord, guitar, sonatas and coral sacred music. I enjoyed your piano performance, Thank you Rick

I enjoy her music so much! Thank You Rick for recognising her Talent! I have a song called SAMBAMOR, here in my channel, where the arrangement is inspired in her workpiece.

2:26 "A funny little tune, but it yielded some good things." : - )

Fantastic performance, I recognized, you pushed back, slightly put your foot on the break pedal (just a metafor) to unjudge the tempo, it's easy to accerilate in this up tempo, great done. Now I really follow your channel with great excitement😎

Another amazing lecture😎

Great lesson and performing😎

nobody seems cares here that u r talking about different prelude... This is G flat major.

This was excellent. Very interesting and informative. Very much enjoyed the performances 😊

"Promo SM"

What an interesting channel <3

Fascinating! I read SoYW about 15 years ago. Something about it intrigued me enough to read a second time, somthing I rarely do. It so happens that chopin is my favorite composer, and C#minor, my favorite key. I always thought there is something quite melancholy about that particular key, having a preference for monor keys in particular.

Thank you, Rick

Fantastic video!! Thank you for sharing your insight into Scarlatti's oeuvre, he is a completely unique composer among the classics. There is, however, a slight correction to be made: i'm afraid the sonata starting in 14:14 is not K. 102, but K. 430. The former is in G minor.

Great! I enjoyed.

Terrific and very enjoyable presentation, Rick. Thank you! As a harpsichordist myself, I absolutely adore Scarlatti along with Albero, Seixas and Soler amongst the Iberian School. A gentle correction however, if I may. It was actually Queen Maria Barbara who stacked on the weight rather than Scarlatti. An analysis of her portraits from youth to her later years will amply illustrate that, whereas the only portrait we have of Domenico is rather lean for a man pushing late 50s at the time. Congrats to for your sensitive yet energetic performances. I never tire of the Sonatas! Best wishes from Melbourne, Australia 😀🎼😀

That's fantastic. Go through the lecture and then "boom!" the two great piano pieces make this a totally satisfying experience!
