Charles-Valentin Alkan - Troisième Recueil de Chants, Op.65

[@pianomaly9]

Bravo Stephanie McCallum! Long time alkan devotee, but never heard this before. Constantly amazed at Alkan's unique inventiveness.

I first listened to this back into early 2010s when Hexameron channel wasn't terminated by UA-cam. Hamelin's interpretation was by far the best one I've ever heard.

Superb!

I was amazed that the usual Alkan virtuosic insanity wasn't present in these pieces, and then 11:04 happened.

04:31 I seemed heard some Jazz elements here ! 😄

These sound very similar to songs without words op. 19.

[@rosiefay7283]

That was Alkan's intention --- he wrote five sets of six Chants, and deliberately based each set on Mendelssohn's first set of Songs without Words.

What does "m: v:" means? At 17:23

[@joshscores3360]

It means mezza voce.
