Romantic Lab - Rubinstein, Melody in F (arr. for cello and piano)

Imitation of a recording by Kathleen Parlow (1912) To listen to Parlow: Octavie Dostaler-Lalonde, cello Artem Belogurov, piano — Video by Noelia Nicolas Led by Artem Belogurov and Octavie Dostaler-Lalonde, the Romantic Lab is an online video blog dedicated to the study of late 19th- and early 20th-century performance practice, presenting the results of research and experimentation with Romantic performance by imitating historical recordings. Since 2018, Artem and Octavie have been using close imitation of early recordings as a research method to better understand and integrate into their playing the elements of style that make those recordings so mesmerizing, and different from contemporary approaches. These videos were made after having reached a satisfactory result, and can be seen as experiments; they are showing the progress made over time as the two musicians become more familiar with various techniques and stylistic features.
