Man, pianists are good these days. It's actually incredible. The level has gone so high and I'm pretty sure it was Crumb who put the bar the highest for performers.
By pure luck, I recently found (on eBay of all places!) the actual manuscript copy in George's hand for the final movement of this piece, the 'Spiral Galaxy'/Aquarius. Since almost (if not all) of Crumb's manuscripts are now in the Library of Congress, and I've never seen another manuscript by him on the open market or in a private collection, this was astonishing (to say the least). I've taken it to a paper conservator/framer to have it properly conserved and framed - pretty darn thrilled to add it to my collection...
Hope it was carefully authenticated. When I was in conservatory many composition students were having fun copying this very novel (fifty-five years ago) notation. If authentic, I would think it's worth some fairly serious coin. Remember, Crumb's compositions were also works of visual art and recognized as such by many in that world.

Fã incondicional da obra de Crumb, não me canso de apreciar seus trabalhos e essa obra é maravilhosa. Um clássico contemporâneo. Vitali está soberbo. Parabéns.
His quotation Black Angles is my favorite as he has the strings play on the "wrong" side of the fingers to reproduce the sound of a viol. Eerie and deliciously done
There is a certain brand of composer who is much more interested in how cool the music looks on the page than how it sounds. I admit that it does look cool, but I would definitely get a lot more enjoyment out of this piece by looking at the notation without hearing it, rather than hearing it without seeing the notation.
This made some spell on me... just a question maybe I do not understand clearly. Who plays what? 1 and 2 Jo Boatright 3 Laurie Hudicek 4 Andrew Russo 5 to 12 Laurie Hudicek Is that correct? Does somebody is able to answer to me?

19:50 is the scariest part that i ever heard on music category
Rest in peace. Truly one of a kind.
14:45 at 2AM I occasionally do this down the stairwell in my apartment building.
So abstract, liminal and mellifluous. There are the best adjectives to describe it.

Simplesmente maravilhoso poder acompanhar essa partitura tão complexa. A genialidade de Crumb não tem limites. Parabéns ao canal.

House of Leaves: The score
Came here to say the same thing lol
22:12 legit jumped out of my seat, it sounded like she said my name.
I believe this is a recording by the pianist Laurie Hudicek. (CRUMB: Makrokosmos I & II / Laurie Hudicek, pno / Intakt INN313)
Lovely works! Thinking about learning Gemini for a concert next year.

Yup thats Schumann 1 alright

Jokes aside this is actually pure genius

Muchas gracias por esta partitura. Sería increíble el video similar del Makrokosmos II.
Interesting composition!❤
15:58 wtf and 19:50 lmao
sheet be like ⛔️
the reason why this piece is so difficult is because you have to learn to whistle
@@GICMlmao imagine being a world class pianist and not being able to whistle so u can't play this
@@AsrielKujo i cant whistle help :(

No.3 Pastorale really sounds like some sort of bird-song, much more so than a lot os Messiaen's stuff.
If a kid was meant to play this entire piece without a sheet, The kid: Fuck this shit im out.

does anyone know what the letters at the end of the movements mean? i.e movement 1 ends with G.R. Pisces
