Here I am playing the first piece from Boulez's 12 Notations. The cycle itself is an early work and an hommage to the number 12, with each piece lasting only 12 bar long. How do you make music with so little time? This first piece bears the heading "Fantasque" meaning capricious or imaginary. Using the harmonic language Schoenberg invented, Boulez manages to create a world of sudden changes and quirky accents. The piece also begins and ends with the same notes and gesture. I'll be posting the second piece soon! . . . #pianist #piano #pianoforte #pianistsofinstagram #pianogram #muso #musicnerd #newmusicnerd #contemporaryclassicalmusic #contemporarypiano #zeitgenössischemusik #boulez #schoenberg #docephony #twelvetone #klavier #klavierspielen #neuemusik #germany #oneminutecover #contemporarymusicin60seconds (at Detmold, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/BkJxPy9AGdR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xh0r4qg9xnph
