The effect is probably caused by the steadily pacing (duh) ostinato in the bass that stays essentially the same througout the passacaglia.

Ok, the merry season is near! Time to post some music celebrating the occasion!

Ok, so this is going to be the new boss of the best symphony orchestra in the world
 Looks extremely promising, says I as a huge Rattle fan. Brilliant, energetic and yet utterly humble at the same time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqVz7Y2k4YU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzK7BjydLdo

I am not generally a big fan of Chopin, but watching her hands alone is already impressive enough. Is she even touching the keys?
And the first Etude is a nice piece which also like other Chopin kind of forshadows the modern smooth jazzy piano harmonies, doesn't it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROVy9PC8_8A And here is Martha Argerich's competition winning rendition https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiFfw1jx76s

When I go to the library tomorrow, I intend to check out at least these two albums:
Carlo Gesualdo: Prince of Madrigalists https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvhpnSXFs5g Pierre Boulez: Le Marteau sans Maitre (may he rest in peace) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MS82nF85_gA Also, there's this piece. I know that it's not really classical, but something's been bugging me about it. During the first few seconds, a pianist is playing something. I know it sounds familiar, but I can't place the piece, and I can't even definitively place the composer. I'm fairly sure it's a Romantic composer (like Chopin or Liszt), but I can't figure out what it is. Maybe Alex can help. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXtWPI0oGZA

It sounds painfully familiar. I was first thinking of maybe including Rachmaninov and Tschaikowski on the list of candidates as well, but I couldn't find it so far.
