Gabriel Pierné - Piano Concerto Op.12 PART 1 of 3 - MARYLENE DOSSE

[JoeTownley]

Do any of these concertos (Pierne, Sinding, Alkan, d'Albert, Sgambati et.al.) ever get public performances these days?

[Eeeehhhsoudesuka]

Sounds a bit like Hiller's op 69...

@Ven1EdCox It's a Vox recording, not sure when but I'd say early 70's, it's a great performance though. It's a pity it's quite muddy, nothing I could do about it, sounds like that on the cd!

I don't like this recording as much. First of all, on pure basis of quality, the recording quality is lower. Secondly, the piano is much..weaker. This seems to be a piece of power and passion, which this recording is too soft to sufficiently convey.

@lexarsepa to my mind, Coombs' interpretation was more energical, more obsessive...

[Contrafidelis]

Passion, intensity, and reflection.

It stirrs the Soul.

This piece has so much hidden anxiety and obsession... It can be felt that he was trying to find the way out of trouble... Excellent works... Sure, Pierne must be more famous than he is!
