A set of 4 wonderful pieces by ukrainian composer Bortkiewicz from 1941. 0:00 Con moto affettuoso 4:11 Andantino 7:28 Andantino 10:27 Con slancio Sergii Bortkevych (Ukrainian: Сергі́й Едуа́рдович Бортке́вич, Russian: Серге́й Эдуа́рдович Бортке́вич; 28 February 1877 [O.S. 16 February] – 25 October 1952) was a Ukrainian Romantic composer and pianist of Polish ancestry. Bortkiewicz's piano style was very much based on Liszt and Chopin, nurtured by Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninoff, early Scriabin, Wagner and Ukrainian folklore. The composer never saw himself as a “modernist“, as can be seen from his Künstlerisches Glaubensbekenntnis, written in 1923. His workmanship is meticulous, his imagination colourful and sensitive, his piano writing idiomatic; a lush instrumentation underlines the essential sentimentality of the melodic invention. But Bortkiewicz was not merely an imitator—he very much had his own style that drew upon all the influences of his life and that can be immediately recognised as a typically Bortkiewicz tone: lyrical and nostalgic. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - A method to find scores: - My donation link to keep the channel growing: Thanks for listening :-)
