Oh, I'm sorry I didn't clarify that. I meant any type of piece, not just piano pieces. Also, while these pieces should be characteristic, it...
I'm doing a project on the Classical Era, and as part of it, I need to explain the important composers of the time. I have decided to focus upon...
These are wonderful pieces, and wonderful performances as well. I know very little about Saint-Saens, but these recordings have encouraged me to...
First of all, which Chopin concerto are you talking about? To me, Chopin's 1st concerto (in E Minor) seems more difficult than the 2nd (in F...
If you're going to listen to any Medtner, let it be the piano concerti. They're magnificent! I would say that they are only rivaled by those of...
I was just wondering what the political stances of the composers were. I'd love if anyone could list some composers and explain what ideologies...
I realize that Hamelin did record all of the sonatas, but did he record the other Medtner works? Thanks for your suggestion; I have only heard...
I'm kind of going through a Medtner obsession right now, and I believe that Hamish Milne and Geoffrey Tozer are the only two pianists who have...
I'm pretty sure it means "longs" as well, although I'm not sure if it means to play longingly or to take a very long time to play the piece. After...
I partially agree with everyone here. Although, as some might know, I do not like Bach's (or Mozart's or Haydn's or Handel's) music, it is...

Wait, now that website's requiring a username and password from me! What happened?? Could it be that too many people were using the site? Why do...
Oh my God, I love you!!! Thank you for bringing us this awesome website! Its almost like IMSLP reincarnated!! When I saw all of the composers on...
I hate it when this happens to me! It happens way too often. Although it's obviously not how all of our favorite composers did it, using...
I agree with techneut wholeheartedly. Just because it's what Chopin did, no matter how great he was, doesn't mean that you have to do it too. I...
Yes, happy birthday to the greatest composer of all time! I'm sure it would make him feel good to know that at least some people in this world are...
It's so great to see someone playing my man Faure! These preludes are great, and it sounds to me like you nailed them! No. 3 was just a little...
Wow, great playing! That version is definitely different from the one I'm used to. So this is the urtext edition of the nocturne?
Okay this is so weird! Right as I read the above two posts about the Poulenc flute sonata, the said sonata's first movement started playing on my...
