Wieder ein vergessener Kompnist, der es sehr verdient hätte wiederentdeckt zu werden. So viele vergessene Schätze der Musik, danke dass du sie unzugänglich machst und meinen Horizont erweiterst!
Thanks to you and your channel, I’m enjoying this Scharwenka deep-dive. All the pieces are thoroughly listenable, rich, and the recordings are well-curated. You’ve helped make my work day much more satisfying!
Oh wow. Its finally on youtube! Performed the first movement about 3 years ago as I absolutely loved it upon buying the Trio Parnassus album for Itunes. I had to order from America to the UK the Silvertrust edition score as its that obscure! Fantastic work and hopefully my trio will be able to perform the whole thing eventually!!!
Does anyone have a suggestion as to why, only now in 2020, these works are suddenly available? This artistry is very high, but in the 1970s all of this work was not available.
After WW1 there was a reassessment of the bloated repertoire of classical music. Those in power chose to perform only those composers and compositions that were ground breaking, innovative or somehow "perfect." Musicologists and conductors effecively "approved" only a handful of composers: Bach, Handel, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, and Brahms being the giants. Other composers like Mendelssohn. Schumann, Dvorak and Tchaikovsky orbited these suns. Throw in Mahler and Rachmaninoff, and the 20th Century titans Shostakovitch, Prokofiev and Bartok and you have the core repotraire. Strauss and Gershwin the sweet dessert.
For piano we git Chopin and Lizst as well and for opera we got a Mozart or two, some Rossini, Verdi and Puccini plus a few Comic Operas and the Ring Cycle to round things out. But... Over the last couple of decades there has been more and more interest in all the other stuff out there. Vivaldi is everywhere now as well as Scarletti and other Baroque composers. There are also many recordings of many other composerd from Weber, Hummel, Reger, Raff, Schwarenka, Czerny, Arensky, Rubenstein... Well lots and lots of composers seldom heard fror a hundred or hundreds of years.
I think a big part was simply the pragmatic nature of the technology of the time: each piece of music needed physical typesetting and printing out a minimum number of copies to make it economically viable. In the age of digital technologies- we can store significantly more music and print on demand… as expensive as classical music is- it’s a high-cost industry, it’s tough for music publishers to pay rent with “obscure” music which may only sell a couple dozen copies over a dozen years…

Wow... Your team never rests! Seriously, a thousand thanks to the Bartje Bartmans Team for his noble mission and his constancy!

Очень интересная музыка! Немецкий романтизм прекрасен! Пожалуй, будем играть!
