Nikolai Medtner 1889 - 1951
Piano sonata in E minor, "Night Wind" op.25, No.2 (1911)
@larsibacken @classicalmusic @schmonz
Very much enjoyed the sonata. Nikolai Medtner is a new composer to me. Need to listen to more works by him.
@schmonz Thank you for the good read. Your point about #Medtner developing sonata themes in time is very intriguing. What an extraordinary composer! @LeBelge @classicalmusic

Following on the basis of this post.
I need to listen to #Medtner properly.
Has occurred to me that if I could write music, I'd be interested in the elements contrasting, but not actually conflicting, so think I'd be in sympathy with this approach.
@larsibacken @LeBelge @classicalmusic an extraordinary performance of a monumental piece. Welcome to Medtner! Here are a few words about my personal experience with his music (Hamelin read and liked!!): https://schmonz.com/2014/01/28/on-some-cusps/
