A very challenging piece, yet you mastered it! It sounds wistful, but insistent, as of someone calling out to empty space, louder and louder, but unanswered. The natural minor ending is the icing on the cake. Beautiful and terrific. There is no answer: you're on your own.
@@michaelclements5793 You're observations are always so spot on. It was indeed really challenging and the ending, I also noticed in particular. Thanks for listening!
I totally agree, there's this specific air of resignation here - similar in sentiment to the ending of Fauré's last nocturne in B-minor (different texture and key, but still). Wonderful rendition and such a nice composition, I always find the Russian school "Caucasian" harmonies so moving, whether's it this, or Babadjanyan or even Rachmaninov :)
