Holy Smoke! I had no idea that Gorecki wrote stuff like this. All the unrelenting energy!! What a performance! What a piece of music. So much modern music never goes beyond being 'academic'. This piece is just so filled with life. An hour's worth of music in nine minutes! Thank you for this.
Espléndido trabajo que muestra una faceta más de la música contemporánea. Atmósfera motorizada, incansable, expresiva a través de ostinatos vigorosos y robustos. Y pese a que no existe como tal la melodía y los temas y desarrollos, se logra una cohesión y forma impresionantes. También felicidades mil a ti, Adam, por tu manifiesta técnica y manejo expresivo. Thumbs up. Hats off...
As much as I prefer the percussive, almost industrial noise from playing it on a harpsichord, It's just unreal how hard it is to play this well on either instrument!
Quite different from the cembalo (instead of piano) version,but both super-interesting ! A genius !!! i only regret that,for decades,I did even ignore Gorecki's ...existence !
Pretty cool to hear it with piano as the lead, but i think it still works best concerto for harpsichord. And this is not the Concerto For Piano & Strings, it's The Concerto for Harpichord, as played by a piano.
That one red-head bitch played this better in her live performance because she played it with more attack. It was the intensity that she gave this intense PICECE of music. Also, i think the original score which called for harpsichord simply complimented this electrifying piece.
Henryk's problem was his continuing miscalculation of how much abuse an audience can endure. In this case the grinder goes on for four and a half minutes and that is way too much grinding with music that is not interesting. That's also half the piece! Sadly, the second half isn't much better. Lucky for us the whole piece is only nine minutes long.
@@agnieszkaolszewska6079 A great deal of music in the 20th century is based on aural abuse and extreme dissonance. The word BEAUTY is left out of the equation.
