Phillip Sear plays the only surviving fragment of an early opera (1894) by the Russian composer Vladimir Rebikov (1866-1920) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The life of the Russian composer Vladimir Rebikov (1866-1920) is well described here: http://www.pytheasmusic.org/rebikov.html . This piano arrangement of a waltz is the only surviving fragment of a projected opera 'Княжна Мери' (Princess Mary), begun in 1894 and based on Mikhail Lermontov's 1839 novel 'A Hero of Our Time'. The waltz gives little hint of Rebikov's later style, except perhaps the slightly unsettled harmony in the middle section. My thumbnail shows an illustration from an edition of Lermontov's novel (source: https://tinyurl.com/yaeuevja ). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- Played by Phillip Sear http://www.psear.co.uk (Email: [email protected] WhatsApp: http://wa.me/441444483794 ) TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@pianogems
