Johann Sebastian Bach: Prelude in B minor, BWV 855a (Arr. by Alexander Siloti) / @Coversart Coversart 2022-11-28 | Johann Sebastian BachPrelude in B minor, BWV 855a (Arr. by Alexander Siloti)Here is some classical music today: I finally got to Bach's Prelude in B minor BWV 855a arranged by Alexandre Siloti which many generations of pianists often play as an encore. And don't get me wrong, I love Gilels and Sokolov, but I've always felt that for some reason this prelude is traditionally played faster than I like to hear. As a result, I tried to play it slower than traditional interpretations. And of course, I did not stop there, I also recorded my own versions of this composition - remixed and reimagined (although in this case, it would be more logical to call it re-reimagined) as well as a version in a traditional tempo.1. Version One - 00:002. Remixed - 03:503. Reimagined - 07:304. Version Two - 08:56The Prelude in B minor (J. S. Bach, arranged Siloti) is a transcription for piano by Alexander Siloti of the Prelude in E minor BWV 855a by Johann Sebastian Bach from his Klavierbüchlein für Wilhelm Friedemann Bach. Johann Sebastian Bach reused the piece (in a slightly different form) as the tenth prelude in the first volume of his The Well-Tempered Clavier. The piece has been performed by many pianists, including Emil Gilels.Klavierbüchlein für Wilhelm Friedemann Bach is a collection of keyboard music compiled by Johann Sebastian Bach for his oldest son Wilhelm Friedemann Bach. Most of the pieces were composed by Johann Sebastian Bach, and are better known as parts of the Well-Tempered Clavier and the Inventions and Sinfonias. The authorship of some of the other pieces is debated; in particular, some of the famous Little Preludes, BWV 924–932, are sometimes attributed to Wilhelm Friedemann Bach, not to Johann Sebastian Bach.Alexander Siloti (1863 - 1945) was a Russian pianist, conductor and composer. He made more than 200 piano transcriptions, as well as orchestral arrangements, of the music of Bach, Beethoven, Liszt, Tchaikovsky, and Vivaldi. Perhaps his most famous transcription is the The Prelude in B minor (J. S. Bach, arranged Siloti)Coversart streamings / socials:https://linktr.ee/Coversart#Bach #Piano #Prelude

Rebirth / @Coversart Coversart 2022-11-21 | Rebirth is a spontaneous improvisation that I accidentally recorded yesterday afternoon - it was dark, cold, and damp outside, and as a result, it turned out quite different from the music that I usually perform on my channel. In this specific case, I was inspired by "e.s.t." rather than minimalism, or what today is usually called neoclassical, modern classical, or just cinematic music.Coversart streamings / socials:https://linktr.ee/Coversart#coversart #piano #rebirth #improvisation

The CD Critic put forth that In a Time Lapse is "gorgeously ambient." The Independent critic noted the "trancelike wave motion of tracks like 'Corale' and 'Run'" and "the more complex, layered pieces such as 'Life' ... cycling piano and glockenspiel against rhapsodic, flowing string lines", while also saying, concerning Einaudi's talent, that "there's a deeply satisfying emotional logic to his piano-based progressions that makes him as much the inheritor" of Frédéric Chopin and Erik Satie as of minimalists such as Philip Glass and Steve ReichLudovico Maria Enrico Einaudi (born 23 November 1955) is an Italian pianist and composer.

John Murphy - Adagio in D Minor / Sunshine // @Coversart Coversart 2022-10-15 | 'Adagio in D Minor' was originally written by Murphy for the Danny Boyle science-fiction film Sunshine back in 2007.You always learn something new, although it is not at all new. This time I came across a track by John Murphy - Adagio in D minor which I didn't know about and which I decided to rework and record. The first thing I noticed, of course, is that this harmonic sequence, which only the laziest composer has not used in the last few centuries, has a very strange name - "adagio in d minor", although it is obvious that the track is written in the key of E minor. Thanks google, here is Murphy's explanation: "The official answer from John Murphy it is in E minor it was written before the film and transposed to E minor as in his words it sounded better for the film as it gave more hope." (lol)Well, below you will find some more information about this composition.Stunned, of course, I always wonder why such music, in such an uncomplicated arrangement, collects some unthinkable views and gives the author such a volume of potential royalties... 120 bpm, E minor, midi keyboard, simple harmonic sequence. It's like winning the lottery, really :)**Sunshine: Music from the Motion Picture is the soundtrack album for the 2007 Danny Boyle film Sunshine. It is a joint composition by the electronic band Underworld and film score composer John Murphy. Underworld has a long history of collaboration with Boyle, having been featured on the soundtracks of Boyle's Trainspotting, A Life Less Ordinary, and The Beach. Murphy composed the scores to Boyle's 28 Days Later and Millions."Adagio in D Minor"The tracks "Sunshine (Adagio in D Minor)", and "Kaneda's Death Pt. 2 (Adagio in D Minor)" have been adapted in other media.

Michael Nyman - The Exchange (from The Claim) / @Coversart Coversart 2022-10-12 | Michael Nyman - The Exchange (from The Claim)To be honest, I still don't get the phenomenon/popularity of this composer. But I really want to understand) Do you have any recommendations for what I should listen to or maybe perform/record?piano: Spitfire Audio — Originals Cinematic Soft Piano"The Exchange" appeared on The Claim: Music From The Motion Picture - the soundtrack album to the 2001 film The Claim directed by Michael Winterbottom.Michael Laurence Nyman, CBE (born 23 March 1944) is an English composer of minimalist music, pianist, librettist, musicologist, and filmmaker, known for numerous film scores (many written during his lengthy collaboration with the filmmaker Peter Greenaway), and his multi-platinum soundtrack album to Jane Campion's The Piano. He has written a number of operas, including The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat; Letters, Riddles and Writs; Noises, Sounds & Sweet Airs; Facing Goya; Man and Boy: Dada; Love Counts; and Sparkie: Cage and Beyond. He has written six concerti, five string quartets, and many other chamber works, many for his Michael Nyman Band. He is also a performing pianist. Nyman prefers to write opera over other forms of music.Note from allmusic:*Michael Nyman's sweeping score to director Michael Winterbottom's film The Claim might contain the most mournful compositions of the composer's career. Nyman's most successful scores in the past have been those where he explored baroque minimalism, as seen in his film scores to many Peter Greenaway films, and those where he tackled strong emotions, as in his score to Jane Campion's The Piano. With The Claim, Nyman composes in broad strokes; the minimalism of past compositions is still on display, but it's buried under a wall of evocative strings and weary brass through most of tracks. Some critics have called The Claim Nyman's answer to Ennio Morricone's score for Sergio Leone's Once Upon a Time in the West.

Because the battery in my camera did not live up to the last chord - I used a photo for the final bars (and also for a thumbnail) by Matt Hardy / inst: mattchardy*Adrift is a 2018 American survival drama film produced and directed by Baltasar Kormákur and written by David Branson Smith, Aaron Kandell and Jordan Kandell.

Clint Mansell - Together We Will Live Forever (from The Fountain) / @Coversart Coversart 2022-09-27 | Clint Mansell - Together We Will Live Forever"Together We Will Live Forever" appeared on The Fountain: Music from the Motion Picture is the soundtrack album to the 2006 film The Fountain directed by Darren Aronofsky. Released on November 27, 2006, through Nonesuch Records, the album is a collaboration between contemporary classical composer and frequent Aronofsky collaborator Clint Mansell, classical string quartet the Kronos Quartet, and post-rock band Mogwai.Clint Mansell — the composer for Aronofsky's previous films Pi and Requiem for a Dream—reprised his role for The Fountain. The San Francisco-based string quartet Kronos Quartet—who previously performed for the Requiem for a Dream soundtrack—and Scottish post-rock band Mogwai also contributed to the film score. Darren Aronofsky hoped that David Bowie—whose song "Space Oddity" helped influence the film's space traveler storyline—would record a song when the musical artist worked briefly with composer Clint Mansell during production. Aronofsky planned for Bowie to rework pieces of the score and to vocalize them, but the plan was unsuccessful.The song "Together We Will Live Forever" was an electronic piece designed by Mansell to be the protagonist's memory theme. Antony Hegarty, lead singer of Antony and the Johnsons, was commissioned to create a vocal piece over piano arrangement of "Together We Will Live Forever" for the end credits, but the director decided that the vocals would not be appropriate to end the film. The song was ultimately performed by pianist Randy Kerber.Mansell won the Chicago Film Critics Association's 2006 award for Best Original Score, and he also won the World Soundtrack Award for Best Original Soundtrack of the Year and Public Choice Award. He was also nominated for the 2006 Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score for The Fountain, but lost to Alexandre Desplat for The Painted Veil. Mansell also lost a nomination for the 2006 BFCA Critics' Choice Award for Best Composer to Philip Glass for The Illusionist.Coversart streamings / socials:https://linktr.ee/Coversart#Coversart #TheFountain #clintmansell Together We Will Live Forever · Clint Mansell(from The Fountain OST)Writer: Clint MansellArranger: Justin SkomarovskyPerformer: Coversart
George Frideric Handel - Lascia chio pianga (Arr. for Piano Solo) / Synthesia Piano Tutorial Coversart 2022-09-27 | George Frideric Handel - Lascia Ch'Io Pianga (Lascia la spina) from Rinaldo, HWV 7b, composed in 1711 and arranged for piano solo by Moritz Moszkowski in 1919.Last night this aria played in my playlist (performed by Bartoli youtu.be/c56qtfgV5f8) and I immediately decided to record it. In principle, I was going to play it by ear, but a google search suggested that the arrangement of this aria had already been created (long before me) by a quite respectable arranger, lol - Moritz Moszkowski. Therefore, without any doubt, I performed his version of this brilliant creation.The aria has been recorded by many artists, and is featured in several films including Farinelli; All Things Fair by Bo Widerberg; L.I.E. by Michael Cuesta; Antichrist and Nymphomaniac, both by Lars von Trier.INFO:"Lascia ch'io pianga" (English: "Let me weep"), originally "Lascia la spina, cogli la rosa" (English: "Leave the Thorn, Take the Rose"), is an Italian-language soprano aria by composer George Frideric Handel that has become a popular concert piece.Its melody is first found in act 3 of Handel's 1705 opera Almira as a sarabande; the score for this can be seen on page 81 of Vol. 55 of Friedrich Chrysander. Handel then used the tune for the aria "Lascia la spina, cogli la rosa", or "Leave the Thorn, Take the Rose", for the character Piacere in part 2 of his 1707 oratorio Il trionfo del Tempo e del Disinganno (which was much later, in 1737, revised as Il trionfo del Tempo e della Verità).Four years after that, in 1711, Handel used the music again, this time for his London opera Rinaldo and its act 2 aria "Lascia ch'io pianga" ("Let me weep"), a heartfelt plea for her liberty addressed by the character Almirena to her abductor Argante. Rinaldo was a triumph, and it is with this work that the aria is chiefly associated.Coversart streamings / socials:https://linktr.ee/Coversart#Coversart #Handel #Synthesia #Piano #visualizer

Philip Glass - Mad Rush / Synthesia Piano Tutorial // @Coversart Coversart 2022-09-23 | Philip Glass - Mad Rush (1979) / Synthesia Piano Tutorial“...Glass proceeds to tell the story of how back in 1979, the organizers of the Dalai Lama’s very first public address in North America had approached Glass to create a piece of music with one very particular prerequisite: because the Dalai Lama’s schedule – and thereby his arrival at the venue – was so vague, they needed a piece of music that could be stretched for an indefinite period of time without the audience realize there was any delay occurring, and this provided the beginnings for one of the most iconic minimalist compositions of all time! Glass also elaborates that Mad Rush was originally composed as an organ piece, and was created on the very organ that rests inside New York’s Saint John The Divine Cathedral which sits near the northwestern corner of Central Park. Musically Mad Rush is based on alternations between two themes. One theme is peaceful and meditative, but the other is fast and a bit frantic. Glass himself explained that the two themes represent the play of the wrathful and peaceful deities in Tibetan Buddhism. Glass went to India in the 60s and came in contact with Tibetan refugees. During this time he started to gravitate towards Buddhism. Practicing Buddhism and meditation has become an important part of his life. He is also known to be a strong supporter of Tibetan independence...”Philip Glass Playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWv6irCJGAKJdar2UgBhi70J4rSRUO8nFCoversart streamings / socials:https://linktr.ee/Coversart#Coversart #PhilipGlass #MadRush

For a long time, I could not get out of my head all these catchy motives with the expected endings on the subdominant. Apparently, in order to somehow get rid of the obsessive formula, I improvised this composition that you are listening to at the moment.
