Rob Schwimmer plays KORNGOLD on theremin at the Gilmore Piano Festival

You’re in a strange yet intimate land where sound moves slowly but unpredictably. When you least expect it you find yourself in these beautiful soft lush landings… I fell in love with this sumptuous song by @Erich Wolfgang Korngold from his Drei Gesänge - 1 called “In meine innige Nacht“. Some of you may know Korngold from his great Hollywood action soundtracks from the 1930’s and 40’s. This piece, composed in 1924, reminds me a little of Messiaen... pre-Messiaen… In concert from Kalamazoo, MI on May 14th, 2022. I recorded the piano track which is trickier than it sounds! I’m playing a Hobbs theremin through EH TM for thereminists… #gilmorepianofestival #theremin #pianomusic #song #korngold #erichwolfgangkorngold #classicalpiano #jazzpiano #electronicmusic #love #beautiful #robschwimmer
