Thank you very much for sharing the score. It is a pity that the rental of the orchestral material is so expensive $2500 US dollars for one performance.

Thank you so much!❤

Where did you get this file haha I guess I scanned this, and the publisher is Yamaha Music Media Corporation.

Thank you so much!!!!!!

Thank you so much!!!! 😭❤️

check out the rest of Kapustin's music! especially piano concertos no. 4 and 5, and piano sonata no. 2. also look into Gershwin if you want more of an "old jazz" sound, or Weissenberg if you want more of a "classical fusion" sound... there's a lot of good music out there

it's difficult but very fun to play, good luck!

I want to do this too - but it seems like a Herculean task to learn any of these movements. Are you going to learn both parts for piano?

The first movement is relatively straightforward in both the solo part and the orch reduction. 2nd movement is mainly ok once you get your head around d the 8/8 subdivision and the 3rd movement is wild fun and a pig 🐖 😂 👍🏻

@@ggthepianoman9870 I am a few pages from the end, and I can confirm the 1st movement wasn't that bad!

Wow. - well done you that must be very satisfying it’s such a fun piece and guaranteed to make you smile - good luck with the final arpeggio flourish pages 👍🏻 G

そやな

Thank you! I'll add these to the video

​@@Dodecatone did you alter the audio on this video? It's easier to follow the sound of the piano compared to other recordings.

@@crahseryt8997 This audio was taken directly from the studio-recording CD by Masleev and the SSSO. I didn't change anything in the audio mix (nor am I experienced enough to know how!) You can find it on streaming in a few places, here's Spotify: open.spotify.com/album/5CMgjLHN3HSyF9oGQzzrl9

Thanks.

he is awesome but yes

Agree, he’s overrated, this is fire

@@AndrewKierszenbaum Nikolaj would tell you to eat cabbage

It sounds like a commercial from the BBC.

​@@mckernan603капуста- I see what you did there

thanks! more modern works should be coming soon, but I'm waiting for a strike on a Sorabji score-video to expire, just to be safe

I find a one of score, but It's out of print so long ago... OTL

@@haeun4254 It's possible to find the 2-piano score by searching for "kapustin 2 reduction" online, however the score is quite expensive.

예전에 대한음악사에서 2번 4번 투피아노버전 사 놓은게 있는데 전부 절판됐군요.;;

인터넷에 찾아보면 오케스트라 풀스코어 pdf가 있긴 합니다

Check Schott

For sheet music, see the pinned comment. For the audio recording, this was taken from Dmitry Masleev's album "Rapid Movement"

Only good? This is one of the greatest things ever! :D

@@GUILLOM Not that good, but still good. I recommend you to listen to Gershwin’s concerto, you may like it as well :)

@@Dylonely42 Not as good as this one >:(

I hear it! Is it the descending motif from the first mvmt?

no

It's 8/8 (which is like 4/4 but feeling every eighth) with the suggestion of counting it in groups of 3, 2, and 3 (ONE-two-three-FOUR-five-SIX-seven-eight)

@@Dodecatone thanks for the fast answer! I have never seen anything like that before, interesting

You can find it online to purchase, but it's out of print and expensive. I can send you a PDF if you reach out to me (contact info in the About section of my channel)

You might enjoy Kapustin's later concertos. No. 5 is especially imaginative, and No. 6 veers toward free-form idioms.

In previous message the word 'not' was erased. The original was: But it does not have the warmth, sincerity and melodic genius...

Why without substance?

Wow! Look mom! A man spreading lies on the internet! Gershwin is derivative and unimaginative compared to even the most diminutive of Kasputin's works.

@@stevehinnenkamp5625 Dw your previous message edited itself so it wouldn't be wrong

Hmm… how exactly?

@@maestoso9165 probably the use of those massive piano chords. I'd say the better way to put it is if Rachmaninoff majored in Jazz lol

@@itsdarksucks now that you put it like that I can see how it does sound sort of Rach-ish. In the pianism maybe more than the harmonies

@@maestoso9165 Kapustin had a thorough classical education and studied with teachers that had personally known some of the Russian classics (Medtner, Rachmaninoff, Scriabin...), so it's not surprising at all that you can hear Romantic bits here and there. Also, Kapustin's earliest compositions were in the vein of late-19th/early-20th century Russian composers.

@@adlfm Yes I did know that he was classically trained. That is also quite clear in the structure and style of his music but I wasn’t able to see how it sounded like Rachmaninoff. Although I now have become able to hear the Rachminoff-esque arrangement and orchestration. However in the harmonic content of this piece I don’t hear it. But that might just be me

I personally love this concerto, but I think even Kapustin himself considered it a more "junior" work [I can't find the source but I feel like I definitely read this somewhere]. Kapustin's later concertos, though rarely performed, are worth checking out though - they're quite a bit different and arguably more mature works.

What do you mean ? And why do you compare it to Gershwin ?

​​@@Dylonely42 Well, I suppose these are good questions. I compare this music to Gershwin because a good number of others have. Kapustin writes what some might term "symphonic jazz", classical music influenced by jazz, a sort of music of which Gershwin is the acknowledged past master. But Kapustin's jazz idiom is closer to Mancini than it is to Gershwin. I hope I've answered your questions. Be well, & thanks for asking!

what makes you say that? what does Gershwin do that you commenters think is lacking in kasputin? I've seen multiple comments on this and they are all similar...

I'd have to write a book! And you'd have to have eyes to see & ears to hear.

Why is it "trash"? Go on, I implore you to elaborate.

Well I mean this is an early work so it would lack complexity, I don't think that makes it trash. I think Kapustin overall fails comparisons to Gershwin not because one is better or worse but because they were inspired by different eras of jazz, and came from different backgrounds of classical. They have unique sounds, and expecting one to sound like the other because they're both "the jazz classical guys" is reductive to both fields. I initially thought Gershwin sounded a little simple and boring in comparison, but later on realized that was only due to my expectations on what classical music with jazz forms "should sound like" as laid out by Kapustin.

haha I genuinely think Gershwin is trash compared with Kapustin to be honest. The rhythmical and harmonic complexity is not even at the same level.
