They're transcriptions, not reductions. Those who say the pianist adds bits to the published liszt score don't seem to realise that he too would have embellished the score while paying. The 1860s published scores probably were considerably edited. Part of Liszt's aim seems to be to get these masterpieces to live audiences, not in some great nobleman's house but in a public hall. Many would probably not get to hear an orchestral performance of the symphony in a lifetime. He trained many pianists to high standards, but the score had to be playable by a large range of performers, hence the many ossias. Beethoven's attitude to 'accuracy' with a score was simply that the spirit of the music and the player's interpretation was paramount. He owned one of the first metronomes, for example, but is never known to have used it.
Litz es genial. Su admiración por Beethoven fue enorme. Cuando Litz tenía 11 años pudo conocerlo en vida y esa admiracion lo llevó a convertirse en su mas grande difusor y a llevar al piano sus sinfonías. Listz era un genio pero siempre admiró tambien al genio de Beethoven. El disfrute de esta adaptación es máxima. Absolutamente deliciosa. Saludos desde Colombia.
These Liszt arrangements of the Beethoven symhonies are amazing, and accomplish what I would have thought impossible, and each bar definitely reminds you of the orchestral version. And Cyprien Katsaris is a good pianist to have to play these, with his remarkable ability to differentiate simultaneous voices within a passage. But I notice quite a few places where what Cyprien Katsaris plays is different from what is written in the score. Did Liszt make more than one arrangement and could this account for the discrepancies? - or did Katsaris change it himself?
I mean there are parts where the score says you can play one of two things (3rd or 4th staff, I think). If I would play this I would have to change things too because my hands are too small.
Katsaris made his own changes, some voices were missing. If you understand French i think he said it in one of his interview 10 years ago on Radio Classique.
Katsaris definitely did a thorough score reading and added in some stuff that Liszt left out for whatever reason! He is closer to the original score than Liszt this way. And he consistently changed how the timpani were transcribed by putting it in the lowest octave for that nice resonant, rumbling and percussive sound
One thing that I'm really noticing with this guy performing the symphonies is the things he adds to them that no one does. In here, for example, at 31:09, it sounds much more like what the orchestra's actually doing in the original than what I normally hear when other people perform Liszt's transcriptions. I'm wondering where that comes from. It's really quite remarkable, in a positive way.
Sad thing is that he suffered more because, as conductor he was facing all that brassware while the performers had their backs to it. He was aware of the effect on his tinnitus. During the siege of Vienna, he lay on the floor in a cellar with his head covered in cushions to try and preserve hearing. He went right off Napoleon after that date!
Again, it's not a 'reduction,' it's a 'transcription. ' A reduction is what you might take to a rehearsal, as for example, a score for a ballet rehearsal. A transcription aims to reproduce a much as possible of the original, complete with orchestrations etc. The published score is what a range of pianists can work on, what liszt and his favoured students actually played may have been far more like what we're getting here. An obvious intention was to effectively democratise classical music- the ordinary people might never hear a Beethoven symphony live- but with a cohort of highly trained pianists they could get much of the experience via a single performer. Obviously the published scores had to be available to pianists who hadn't been to the liszt academy, and to those with different physical strengths. Publishers in those days were reluctant to publish 'old' works, much less several different versions of the same work. There were also piano 'reductions' by the likes of Czerny and others.
I had to pause after the second movement because of the effect on my psyche. This transcription has shown me a perspective on this piece I simply could not have considered otherwise. I seemed to had entered into an otherworldly vista of spectacular subliminal colors. I experienced many “body auras” that I never had in all my many hearings of the orchestral original. Perhaps, Beethoven played this second movement a number of times himself and discovered this unique dimension beyond the sensual? This second movement was so philosophical sweet and tender in the quiet moments; almost to tears. This is so very unusual for me I feel it might be from a parallel universe? I know this description might seem somewhat bizarre but this is what I heard and felt. It was truly wonderful! PWG. P.S. As for the finale; it sounded like what goes on in nuclear fusion? I suppose?
Was Liszt a human or an alien? How a man single handedly do all these great works could be he never slept was he musicoholic? many questions to be answered
Does anyone else think the first movement is played a bit too fast? And the tempos on the others seem off too. Sometimes painfully slow. Not sure why these choices. Is this related to the old debate on how the tempi were calibrated in the 19th C.? Although old Ludwig sure was brilliant, no?
Beethoven was naturally brilliant, and it is possible for the performer to make errors in terms of interpretation. Katsaris I believe did go a little odd on the tempo, and personally I prefer gould's version overall, but as gould has said, "If you are going to play a piece the same as everyone else, why play it at all" so eh creative freedom ig
@@combinationova1400 did Gould ever actually say that? I was going to use that in a paper but after some research nothing popped up… but the quote sound fimiliar
I commented on another B-L symphony post that use of the word reduction sounds demeaning to me....as if you are creating a simplification or sort of easy child'z version .... surely nor the case in th List transcriptions of the nine Beethoven Symphonies. Perhaps it is a British or EuropeN custom to call it a "reduction."
@@ashiapmanman Thank you for answer. I thought that at first, but also i was wondering if this piece was also another reduction to make it easier to play.
The piece is very nicely played, but I'm struck by how much less power it has than the original. And what was that awful racket produced when he played tremolos in the bass in the first movement. I know there were pianos of Mozart's era that had a Janissary pedal (used in his Rondp alla turca), but I don't know what would produce that sound on a modern grand.
@@pianista-mediocre it’s more than a pianist change (interpretation), it’s a wrong copy-cut with the second staff in the score because it seems to modulate (and we can hear it doesn’t, it’s a pedal in G) and suddenly… new staff, G major!
Agreed. While I think Katsaris's interpretations are by far the best, I actually disagree with a lot of Katsaris's tempo choices in this symphony specifically. The 2nd mvmt clearly says "con moto", doesn't it?!
The first movement is more or less exactly as fast as Beethoven demanded. It never ceases to amaze me that almost 40 years after there have been multiple recordings trying to be faithful to the metronome indications people still say: "Too fast". No it is not! Furtwängler is too slow. ;)
I don't think there's really something like the correct tempo. It's a part of the interpretation, some performances are slower and some are faster. The classical music is not meant to have a strictly defined, metronomic tempo. The standards in music have changed over the last 200 years and also the tempi that composers had in mind not always sound like the best choice.
Very interesting to listen to and follow with the score but unfortunately I couldn't get past the opening. As performed, the tempo of the opening motto theme (played twice) is completely different to what follows. It turns the core idea of the symphony into some sort of rhetorical device which is sort of effectively pianistically but which makes no sense musically. Sorry.
I’m terribly afraid that I agree with you in toto. I would add that the beauty and lyricism of the final movement is utterly lost and probably through no fault of the pianist is “banged out” due I believe to the attempt to collapse the complexities into two hands.
@@crewelocoman5b161I wouldn’t say nonsense. Again, it is a entire symphony changed to a solo piano piece, so some things would definitely be miss out. But I would say he already did a great job playing what was intended. I had the same opinion as you at first, ngl, but after understand and analysing more, I do understand that his performance is out of my understanding.
Das kann ich mir nicht anhören, grauenhafte Interpretation! Extrem zu schnell - Allegro heißt fröhlich, allegro con brio heißt allegro mit "Feuer" aber damit ist doch nicht das Tempo gemeint sondern der musikalische Ausdruck!!! - Bemerkenswert die spielerischen Fähigkeiten des Interpreten aber das musikalisch Empfinden bleibt leider im Hintergrund.
Alright Ima assume you are talking about the first movement, from what I read. The movement is played very well in my opinion. Also it is in fact in the correct tempo if you read correctly. If you are talking about interpreting the piece, I highly suggest you make a recording yourself before making criticism on someone’s personal expression, your words make completely no sense.
Utterly magnificent. It meant that many more places without access to orchestras could hear Beethoven's music. I wonder when Liszt ever did sleep - composing, performing, teaching, transcribing. Lots of Schubert's music who he regarded as the most lyrical of all composers.
Yes; Katsaris is well-known for making improvisational notes during recordings. I personally like it, but sometimes I think they ruin the essence of the original piece.
This recording by Katsaris is so good, specially the 3rd movement. Made me hate almost all the symphony recordings because now I think they play too fast.
You know, given how much this is changed compared to Liszt's score, I feel this should be called Beethoven-Liszt-Katsaris

I’ll bet that if Beethoven had lived long enough and never lost his hearing-he would LOVE it.
Was he ever profoundly deaf? His tinnitus was overwhelming but he was still able to hear liszt play to him in 1823/4 and compliment him. Given his temperament he was possibly more deaf to some visitors than to others.
@@nickjgunningHis hearing is definitely very weak, but he mostly still knew what his music sounded like. Ofc him hearing it clearly in the afterlife will definitely pleasure him.
