Conlon Nancarrow, study no.12
Loading...
Uploaded by GreggaryPeccary on Dec 7, 2008
Study no.12 for player piano by the late, great Mexican-in-exile, actually USAan in Mexican exile. Not really in exile either, but upon joining the communist party was facing harassment and denial of passport renewal. He fought against fascist Franco in the Spanish civil war. Quite a common thing among composers of that era to be extremely left-wing (Xenakis, Stockhausen etc)

fascinating!

What's scary is I've heard some of Alkan's stuff to sound like this.

His studies mask my own, which I had thought to be remarkable..I am in awe.

I would say: quite a common thing among all great people of all kinds of every era!

Oh my fucking God, i had never noticed this until now but Allan Holdsworth Lookin Glass sounds very similar to this. As far as i'm concerned, Nancarrow and Holdsworth are definitely from the same planet. BTW they are both awesome!!

Where you find this record? it is'nt from Wergo and seems to be played by a disklavier grand piano. Can you tell me something about? Thank's

It's a German label, MDG Scene. This is a Bösendorfer Grand, Conlon's own instrument. It's also the best sounding recording available

Is that Gyorgy Ligeti at 2:53?

Yeah, you must have missed the annotation. From left: György Ligeti, Yoko Nancarrow, Jürgen Hocker, Lukas Ligeti, Gieselher Smekal and of course Conlon Nancarrow
