Arthur lourié, who was born in St. Petersburg and who died in Princeton, USA, was one of the Russian avant-gardists of the 1920s. Lourié was appointed "peoples commissar for music" in revolutionary Russia, went to Berlin in 1922 and then to Paris where he lived for 15 years. Emanating from Scriabin, between 1913 and 1917 committed to increasingly futuristic ideals towards atonality, he was strongly influenced by Stravinsky's style of composition at that time during the years he spent in Paris.
Despite his cooperative efforts, Lourié seems to have been generally not much liked, his music inexplicably overlooked during the entire quarter century he spent in the USA. Yet while the sharppenned Slonimsky notes somewhat sourly that Lourié, 'a philosopher by inclination, if not by academic training... had published some modernistic piano pieces in the early days of the Revolution', Vera Stravinsky is of the more generous opinion that Lourié's influence on Stravinsky in the mid 1920s was sufficiently far-reaching to merit 'a book in itself.'Stravinsky himself nonetheless took care effectively to supress all evidence of his one-time friend's personality.
RIP Hexameron: March 31, 2007 - February 29th, 2016
I love how in all these preludes he tries to erase a sense of time (signature) so that it almost sounds "free-floating".
Delicate Scriabinesque pieces, performed with perfectly utilized rubato, marvelous!
Pour moi... l'une des plus belles musiques de piano...Merci.
There is so much emotion in these preludes. What a talented composer
@Adelaine Delabin what are you talking about? Well opinions are varied and I agree with those who feel different emotions when hearing and really appreciating these preludes. So sad some others can't appreciate it.
Never heard of this “Jenny Lin”, but she sounds like a SUPERB virtuoso. I regret that I haven’t heard more of her until I came across this.
Check out her Mompou recordings.@@jasonkim5503

The absurd fact only 5,340 people have heard this music. Thanks for posting!
Martin Tyc music is an eternal...
Has nothing to do with what I was trying to say, and thank you I'm well aware of the mysteries of music. Arthur Louries' music was not appreciated in his day, and most major pianists and concert halls play free public domain music and stick with only popular composers, a fate Nikolai Medtner had suffered as well; Peoples ignorance and sheep like tendencies.
@@martintyc4162 Since we enjoy this video, we are then entirely free of the ignorance and sheep-like tendencies you refer to in your comment.
@@123meanderer Ok dude I love this music a lot but please don't insult people just because they haven't hear a piece of music you like. Also lmao just because you're listening to something obscure doesn't make you "free of ignorance".

beautiful, thanks again for making this available
Magnifique , merci , belle découverte
Yes, thanks for posting this beautiful set of Preludes! Was unaware of Lourie, until now.
Magical! Really beautiful compositions!
Thanks for sharing!Wonderful composer!
Jenny Lin is one of the finest pianists in the world today, but often overooked.
Charming. Never heard them before thanks for sharing.
Magnifique et magique....
.
Very emotive music full of liricism!
absolutely spellbound! I must learn these
Te llena el alma y los sentidos y hace que tu corazón se inunde de sueños.
Like crystals shimmering in the sunlight-beautiful.
beautiful!
Une merveille... une douceur Et une mélodie qui me rappelle Szymanovsky
bellas páginas, armónicamente bien escritas y breves...
Very nice, and totally devoid of the fussiness and showing-of factor so often present in 20th century piano music.
This is one of my favourite preludes from an unknown composer. So much emotion and expression in these preludes! Tbh I actually prefer some of these preludes to Chopin’s ones
I guess, me too!
I think you might like Mompou and Blancafort even more
Preciosas obras. Saludos / Greetings from CDMX
beep-beep
Interessante questa musica rapsodica e volutamente ripetitiva... Il pianista è da 10 e lode!
Heerlijke muziek!
super
1st piece. that second to last bar the repeated note sounds cool
Also beautiful: Marie-Catherine Girod 1990
Digging this. Another crazy Russian cat I'd never heard. 4th piece rocks (very gently!)
ua-cam.com/video/GtDdBbHuXYA/v-deo.html be prepare for an insane piece of music
What a discovery, I feel ashamed to not have known this great composer up until right now, this music is just too overwhelming eventhough it is and is being labeled as "fragile"!
This music is beautiful indeed, and so is the interpretation. Without offending people in any way, nor insulting them in any way, it is normal to deplore that these works are so little known. It's a sad reality because the world eats every day sound shit of all kinds, indiscriminate (because without culture), made by "artists" without any talent. Bravo in any case to this pianist, and eternal glory to Russian Music.
Ooh!
Me recordó a Scriabin
What happened to Hexameron? Thanks for the upload.
Hexameron. Fyrexianoff. Olla-vogala. Medtnaculus. These are the usernames we must do our best to remember, if they are ever erased from existence like poor Hexameron. They are the hidden champions!
The last one!!!!!!!!!!
Lourié will never cease to amaze me. I have just uploaded the music from Death's Mistake, Op. 40 (together with the score) on my channel. Very different from this cycle, to say the least ;) Give it a look if you so wish! Greetings from a fellow scorer
Anywhere I can find a pdf of that score?
@@roberthayes7737 The score is available on imslp!
@@edrikh Do you know if there's is a pdf for these compositions also available on imslp?
Lourie was only a child when he wrote these. Scriabin was still alive.
No 5 Scriabin op 37 no 1?
Indeed. I believe Lourie is one of many contemporaries of great Scriabin.
@Gwilym Price
Beautiful pieces. No.1
Probably sounds like it was modelled on the Elegie by Rachmaninoff in the same key.
~~~
interessante e pregevole, significativissima

Debussy between the lines, Fauré´s seal..
So "fragile," if you even breathe, they disappear.... much like Arthur Lourie's musical identity, sadly. They would certainly be very nice for scattering among deeper pieces during a program... or maybe for encore after something heavy.
savage lol
Listen to his Concerto Spirituale (bad audio and all) on UA-cam and maybe you'll change your opinion. An immensely talented composer whose music is sadly overlooked today.

@@towardthesea_I think they were just talked about how rare this music is, they even said this music would be a nice encore
@@Nostalgicavenue2000 they also wrote "much like Arthur Lourié's musical identity, sadly", implying that he doesn't have an individual style. If the commenter in question actually took the time to listen to Lourié's mature music, rather than throwing a flippant insult at these early works, they would realize his style is quite individual indeed.
После Лурье опус 1, прослушал Скрябина опус 42.
Насколько топорно, неуклюже звучат произведения Скрябина опус 42 после Лурье опус 1 ((
This should have been a classic
But the hair raising and pedantic 12 tone music had to be made famous
Beautiful music died after the obsession of atonality and 12 tone music
Nice job Schoenberg
wow very ravel + early scriabin
Damn, these less-known late-Romantic guys are so edgy. It pretty much justifies Chopin being a music titan - besides daring harmonic work, his influence is everywhere!
medtnaculus I bet ur that kid in school that makes fun of people who only listen to popular artists :w;
Is this late romantic, expressionistic or impressionistic? Sounds like all at the same time. I hear Rachmaninoff, Scriabin and Debussy
Edith piaf francis poulenc haha.

Well it’s always nice to hear something relatively unknown but let’s be honest, these are pretty second-rate.
A brain has two lobes. How about just enjoying the music instead of ranking it?
You are second hand
Another moron from the wastelands...groan
