Kapustin Etude 8 - Finale (Kapustin plays Kapustin)

[kapfan]

@PSDemonwing In terms of their positioning at the end of a great opus, they are perfect in giving a supreme climax to the whole piece. Taken out of context, they might not be the "greatest", but taken in context, as I believe they should be, I believe they are. And I'm his publisher, by the way...

Cheers

this inspired me to get inspired.

[kapfan]

And those last eight chords remain the greatest in all piano music

[PSNDemonwing]

@kapfan Nope. I strongly disagree

Bravo!!!!!!!!

[AdamKuczynski]

Sounds incredibly similar to his 2nd Étude (Reverie - my favourite of this set of pieces). Pretty neat!

[qweuio]

Most difficult piece from the suite. Especially for the left hand. There seems no stable rhythmic pattern, which makes it quite hard to remember, and it should be played without any pedals to sound crystal clear, but not too loud....Mr. Kapustin played it really well at that.

[eelleezz]

He played the wrong tone in his right hand at the end of the 65th second

[David0794]

@eelleezz yeah, the performance totally sucks. one wrong tone in about 1000 notes? ;-)

[philcaron]

[f1f1s]

A very energic and, I would say, ecstatic piece that has included ideas from the whole opus. The last 8 chords made me unconscious.

[FlyingBlackAndWhite]

this inspired me to

stop trying.

[afertyus1000]

@FlyingBlackAndWhite and me lol, i doubt if my piano would have the key reaction even if i could go that fast!!!!!!!!

[TheWanderingNight]

A viewer/liker ratio of 11808:32? That's hardly just!

[DualThunder]

Try learning this? fuck that lol.

Though the triumph of finally being able to play this would be a nice feeling, I get enough pleasure from listening to it.

[huzzzzzzahh]

I bet I can play this with no mistakes.

(At 100th speed)

[Drbolla345]

YEAH RIGHT, no way I am attempting this.

[johnnynoirman]

THIS PIECE KICKS MAJOR ASS!
