Rachmaninoff - Etude-tableau Op. 39 No. 2 in A Minor

A dark, moody, somber piece. Rachmaninoff revealed to his friend that the inspiration behind this piece was "the sea and the seagulls", represented by the triplets in the left hand and the duplets in the right hand, respectively. Also prominent in the left hand is the Dies Irae chant that Rachmaninoff was obsessed with throughout his life.
Piano: Kawai Novus NV-10
Piano VST: Garritan CFX Full

You play with a depth and sincerity unknown to the majority of pianists, even among the "pros"... Very well done.

Beauty across genres and platforms. You are an underrated master. If you are ever in the UK (after this blasted quarantine) and it's in your heart to, arrange a concert. My friends, family and I would travel to see you perform.

Great performance. Also I can understand why he was obsessed with dies irae, Mozart’s requiem were one of the first pieces that I enjoy and conscientiously listened to

Does the audio transmit from the Vst back to your piano speakers by input jacks in the piano, or does the usb connection carry back audio data?

This is very nice! What do you think of Scriabin? He is the melodic heir of Chopin in my opinion. I woud love to hear your thoughts and even more so your interpretation of Scriabin's piano music.

@rach3master 4 жыл бұрын

I'm not too sure about Scriabin. In his earlier period he was certainly Chopinesque, but he evolved drastically into a more atonal style, which isn't exactly my taste.

Very nice job! I listened to many of your peformances: many compliments. I have a question for you about Garritan CFX: I tried your same settings you posted on Pianoworld, yet I am still gettin too much noise from the piano sound when pressing the keys at soft or medium velocity (kind of "PFFFFHH" noise, not rare in audio sampling TBH). Carefully listening to your recordings, I'd swear the noise is much less: did you maybe filtered some of the noise? Do you use EQ externally? I have the CFX LITE, but I don't think this changes much, cause you switched off the "closed" and "ambient" mic in the VST, if I am not wrong. TIA !

@rach3master 5 жыл бұрын

I haven't done any post-processing after I hit record. I use both the close and ambient mics. Your computer setup may be lacking in some ways.

@r.a.5672 5 жыл бұрын

@@rach3master Hi, thanks for answering. You said something interesting: I will try to do some test with other laptops. Yet, the noise I hear seems to be something "inside" the samples more than generated by PC... in fact it's not kind of crack-pops, but ambience noise.... like the blow got by microphones... but I surely will do more tests. Thanks a lot

@@r.a.5672 It may sound obvious but that sounds like the Pedal Noise Knob or the Saturation Knob with high values applied.

@r.a.5672 5 жыл бұрын

@@HOLLBIE thanks but no, even with pedal noise and saturation knobs set to zero I can hear the PFFFH noise: it's probably an ambience noise sampled with the sound itself, that some people may not notice, depending on the used combination with dynamics/headphones sensitivity/listening volume.

That C with the right hand at 5:12 which begins that section, should that not be a B instead? Does your book actually have C instead of B? I'm studying this piece right now, so just curious :)

@rach3master 3 жыл бұрын

I believe the B is a misprint. I've never heard anyone play anything other than C.

@@rach3master Yeah I think you're right.. I have actually heard some recordings with a B there, but I think C sounds more 'natural' to the piece.
