Sorabji: "II. Preludio-Corale" from Opus Clavicembalisticum (Eric Xi Xin Liang)

Recorded at Conrad Grebel University College Chapel (part of the University of Waterloo) on March 19th, 2022. Learned and refined in approximately 18 hours. Use headphones. Since I was bored on the plane ride back home after graduation, I decided to fix the audio from the previous recording a bit to make it sound more abrasive (method was actually incredibly counter-intuitive), like in this short I posted:    • a glorious piano passage that will br...  . I think it's more suitable for Sorabji's music. You're welcome in advance haha, because it also satisfies my perfectionistic tendencies and sounds closer to what it sounded IRL. (Below is just a copy of the description from the old video:    • [OLD UPLOAD] Sorabji: "II. Preludio-C...  ) It's unbelievable that just after a bit over two years, since a time I played music by Prokofiev and Medtner, that I'd be willing to tackle any part of this monumental work. The most highly viewed video on YouTube for Opus Clavicembalisticum [OC], at that time (and still now), made me strongly question the value of such a work, whether it was unrefined clashing noise or actually something that required time, mental conditioning, and patience to begin to appreciate. I know, now and then, that that recording was very poorly presented by the performer, and thus largely misrepresented the composer. I seek to make indirect but significant amends with my interpretation of this movement of OC here. I hope to give a new perspective. Existing recordings of this movement I hear are quite technically unrefined and rough (with the exception of Huisman's recording), without much logical coherence between sections. Since I wanted to avoid being influenced by existing recordings, I only listened to any full recording of this movement when I finished learning and refining the piece through. Seems that this turned out pretty great, and I'm ecstatic to show you all. Honestly, learning some of the sections in this was excruciating, mainly because it only becomes sensible to listen to when it's polished. During the practice period, the dissonances were quite awful on the ears, but perhaps when you listen to this, you'll start to feel that the dissonances cohere nicely. It's quite a marvel by the composer I can't really explain myself. Also, again, I say probably for the 50th time, consider this like chapter 60 of a book. Chapter 1 is music that is similar in style and complexity with Rachmaninoff's that I started off with 2 years ago, so if you're not one to poorly opinionate music out of ignorance and closed-mindedness, please read (listen) to all preceding chapters. Read the description of this video (   • Kaikhosru Sorabji: Gulistān (Eric Xi ...  ) where I explain how I got to the point of playing OC. Anyway, I hope this performance inspires others to pursue this piece. Thanks for listening! Random trivia: Most difficult part for me: 7:15 Chords and octaves are relatively easy, even on 4 simultaneous staves Most intense moments: 8:19, 13:17 Favourite moment: 13:17 to end This recording was done with real reverb this time. No artificial reverb. All other recordings of movements of OC I have:    • Kaikhosru Sorabji: Opus Clavicembalis...   At time of recording, Eric is a 4th year Computer Science student at the University of Waterloo about to graduate. #piano #music #sorabji
