Charles Valentin Alkan - MARCHE
FUNEBRE Op.26a / Marche Triomphale Op.26b - RONALD SMITH

Movie Description from YouTube

Marche Funebre. Played by Ronald Smith, 1971. 'The titles Marche funebre and Marche triomphale suggest that Alkan may have felt challenged to reproduce on the new, powerfully extended Erard concert grand, some of the sombre atmosphere and massive sonorities of Berlioz's great 'Symphonie funebre at triomphale' for massed bands which had recently been produced in Paris. The Marche funebre, stark, grim, full of muffled drums and chiming bells, sustains a processional atmosphere of unrelieved gloom; while the Marche triomphale is a huge, extrovert, swaggering affair of pulverising virtuosity. Neither the composer, nor any other pianist attempted to introduce these works to the public and within a few years Alkan had become a total recluse, a quickly fading legend, his extraordinary compositions remaining the sole witness to a genius which was withheld from public scrutiny with a miserly intensity.' From the sleeve notes by Ronald Smith, 1971.
