Anton Rubinstein - 6 Morceaux, : Mélancolie

A little bonus for today :) Please don’t have too high standards, just saw the piece the first time 2 hours ago. But the ending was so interesting and chimes like, that I wanted to get the recording right now :) The score you see here differs in some places mainly at the end of the piece. At 2:11 for example the score I read from had a different meaning there, I thought there was an I do not know if this was the composers intention or the editors changed stuff. In the notes I played from, (not from Imslp), some chords need to be arpeggiated (what I thus do) also we have the smooth IV6 plagal chord at the end (Hi Medtner, how are ya doing?) and not a repetition of the tonic. The triplets are just amazing :D --- Anton Rubinstein ( 1829 — 1894) was a Russian pianist, composer and conductor who became a pivotal figure in Russian culture when he founded the Saint Petersburg Conservatory. He was the elder brother of Nikolai Rubinstein who founded the Moscow Conservatory.
