Schumann "The prophet bird" Sandro Bisotti piano

[ImTheChopo]

It's funny, he moves like he was directing himself. And he plays this like a boss :D

[lillian6828]

sir, forgive me but i really need to tell you that you totally forgot the G sharp from 1'55''

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

@lillian6828

Thank you, and all the best!

[Adriamarin]

Me ha gustado mucho!

Yo la toco con el clarinete pero no es lo mismo...

Felicidades!

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

@Adriamarin

Clarinet.....not bad for this piece, IMHO.

Thank you much for attention and so kind commenting.

grazie, e ciao!!

[quesadiya]

hello you play very musical!

I like it

which edition do you have for this piece? is it dover urtex schirmer..any other?

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

very kind, thank you. It's an italian edition, the Zecchi revision for Curci editions.

[blueyoyi]

I am always amazed by how absorbed you are in your playing, as if your whole being is into it.

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

Thank you much blueyoyi. Proud of these your

evaluations of my videos.

[kpunkt]

amazing! your way of playing fits perfectly to the twittering bird prophecy. a piece full of meaning and as lightweighted as can be. Like you, Sandro, I am more interested in Schumann's early piano works, but the bird prophet is a real gem. kind of Scriabin style... :-)

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

Bravo kpunkt! This citation of Scriabin about this piece is the simple and evident truth.

But I didn't realized this, thank you.

[pianovirus]

Dear Sandro, another splendid interpretation from you. You have a great command of different tone colors. I particularly enjoyed the quieter middle part!

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

Thank you by heart pianovirus! Happy you liked it.

[musicusblau]

A very musical and expressive performance. The begining could be a bit more pp IMO. A very speaking and expressive playing as we are used from you! I like the filmique experiment with the score. Bravo!

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

Thank you musicusblau, very kind.

Yes, I like this double image score/piano.

I see score images also in your videos, let's work about this.....

[musicusblau]

Yes, a nice idea. In my experience the following method is the best: to film an excerpt of two systems with the camera on a stand and always change the picture, when the music goes on. So the score-picture stands always still. But this method makes also the most effort. I have bad experiences with fotos or scans of the score. They usually are not clear (sharply focused) enough.

[enantiodrom]

Difficile scovare il canto nelle pagine di Schumann e farlo svettare. Questo uccello profeta è un coro intero e il tuo pianoforte ha una voce così aperta a tutte le voci. Bravo

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

Eh che gentile, i tuoi commenti li trovo sempre illuminanti (non voglio fare il finto modesto ed aggiungere "malgrado i complimenti).

Molto contento di leggerti, grazie di cuore.

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

Thank you all for so kind comments.

I find this late Schumann fascinating, but

as "blocked", a weak shadow respect the Schumann of 1830-41.  He was ashamed of himself, searching for an academic "respectability". I prefer 10 times the younger Schumann. But this prophet bird is great. For stocksam: the young Schumann is probably for (more than me) young pianist.

I find (for example) Chopin or Beethoven more good for all the seasons. Again thank you to all you for your encouraging words.

[nikolaimedtner]

glad to hear something new from you! very beautiful!

[MussoGorski]

Love it!

[CZARDASMACABRE]

Great record! très "impressioniste" . Thank you

[go9zu]

[stocksam]

[aewanko300]

Nice. I'm currently considering working on the whole suite.
