Name That Tune
It's Bach without a doubt! An Invention? By 'Artist', do you mean composer or musician? I never would have known the latter.

This one should be easier. Remember, don't go to the site without guessing first!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPxs3...

That is so great! I guess I cheated by looking at the video? I speak a bit of Italian and understood the title of the piece (Actions of Paradise and Inferno) I guess that's pretty much a given, but I can't understand a thing they are singing. Not because I don't understand the Italian, I just can't understand a word! What do you mean the one who interprets it? I would have no idea.Thank you for introducing that to me, Dan!

Phillip Jarousky I like him so much, I had high hopes of seeing him accompany M Pullhar, but the vanished up in smoke.! Anyways isn't he quite vivid, and his 'stage theatrics' don't they deviate from the norm, of such performances?
It's been a little while since the last post and I was just browsing youtube and listening to this, it's a bit macabre don't you think? Remember, don't peak at the video, just click on the link and close your eyes. Enjoy the music, then name the piece and composer. Good luck! This is a fairly popular one.

I absolutely love this piece! I'm surprised that nobody is playing. If you don't know the name of the piece, you can just post who you think the composer is or the other way around. Let's play!

Very close, Luis. Same nationality..."widely considered one of the finest pianists of all time and, as a composer, one of the last great representatives of Romanticism in Russian classical music."

He is one of my favorite composers, I really like that piece. I would have to cheat, too but glad you enjoyed it, Dan!
"He is one of my favorite composers, I really like that piece. I would have to cheat, too but glad you enjoyed it, !" Actually I listened to it twice, nope 3 times, since i had to go and get the 'blood exams' oof my mom, and left it on the middle!
Thanks for 'putting me into the mood' Heather, you see I've forgotten what 'classical symphonic music' is really about
I tend to hear more experimental music nowadays ;

I got two wrong. Both Brahms: the Requiem I didn't even guess, and for the Fourth Symphony, I guessed Robert Schumann. Fun! - Addendum: I mis-spoke. There are a couple more I didn't recognize besides the two Brahms: the barque piece, the Verdi, and the modern one; so maybe I got three right, oops.

Hmmm! It's the technical aspects that worry me. We'll see. My nephew is coming over Saturday. He's my IT man. We'll see! - )

I didn't do very well.
The first I initially thought of (view spoiler) because of the intertwining crescendos and decrescendos, but then the burst...when I looked, I was thinking "duh"! (view spoiler)
The second 'voice & theorbo', I had no clue, I didn't listen for very long. I would never get that.
The third, again my initial guess was wrong, (view spoiler) because it is so fast but then again, it is in a major key and he usually plays in minor so I did doubt my first guess. But then when I looked, again I thought "duh!" So (view spoiler)!
The fourth I thought sounded like (view spoiler) but I knew it wasn't that particular piece. So I wasn't sure who it was. Of course, I was wrong again!
The fifth I actually got correct but only because it reminded me of (view spoiler)
Guess the composer and perhaps the name of the piece.No peeking!

You did well, Mark! I gather your nephew taught you a thing or two?

So, I guess, were on the super honor system here. I'd never heard the piece before. The four movements made it more of a suite than a sonata, but there are four movement sonatas, and the rather "quite" piano part made me think it was Barque and the the piano could certainly been a harpsichord. So I guessed (view spoiler). I liked it. I love (view spoiler).

He taught me "share" and "cut and paste" which I guess are like computer 101. - )
I recently came across a character in a thriller who would only play one piece of music in his study, the Ricercar a 6 (six voice fugue) from the Musical Offering of Bach.

Very grand! (view spoiler)!
Very fancy playing too! - )
#2 I'm surprised that's Schiff. I wouldn't have expected so much rubato from him, in Bach. Disappointing. A non-Bachian interpretation in my opinion.

Again. (view spoiler)
Very nice! - )




Rules are:
Click on the link then CLOSE YOUR EYES. Don't look at what you are going to listen to, don't cheat! Then post the name of the tune and its somposer.
Suggestions on a better way to do this are welcome!
