Souvenirs "Trois Morceaux dans le Genre Pathetique", Op. 15, No. 2.
The Trois morceaux, Op. 15, is a set of three studies that are among the earliest of Alkan's published solo music. They are indications of the provocative and original voice that was yet to mature fully. The Second, 'Le vent', was once the only widely known piece by Alkan, a favourite of Harold Bauer whose Duo-Art piano roll is technically proficient but musically wanting. Hamelin turns its pyrotechnical chromatic runs and sombre theme into an atmospheric impressionistic poem.
Played by: Marc-Andre Hamelin
