    Cziffra is the best of the 20th century. Liszt would be proud of him!

    Cziffra is for me the greatest performer of Liszt. His sonata in B minor sounds nearly like a different sonata. Magical piano playing abilities, god like rhythmical expression riddled with the most powerful and strikingly accurate precision!

    • @marksmith3947

    Thank you so much for uploading this to You Tube. I don't think any other of the great pianists understood Liszt as Cziffra did. To me it's like he had a spiritual connection to him or a part of Liszt reincarnated in him.....when I hear him play, it's magic. Not because of the amazing technical proficiency, but the way he interprets, lets the notes count - one by one- in spite of the mind boggling speed. The only thing I don't comprehend is why this video doesn't have millions of views......

    • @piano345
      @piano345  7 років тому +6

      I agree with you. It's not all about virtuosity but the fact his technique enabled him to concentrate on the message behind the notes. It sounds as though he is composing the music at the piano which is the essence of great playing and communication.

    There are two amazing interpretations which Cziffra only did once during his life: Un Sospiro and La Leggierezza. I'm wondering do you know whether Cziffra did record or play these 2 etudes in other places, or not ?

    • @piano345
      @piano345  8 років тому +6

      I agree with your that his performances of Un Sospiro and La Leggierezza are wonderful. As far as I know, he didn't record them again or play them in public which is a great pity. I always regret that he never gave another London recital after 1963.

    • @johnmerrick9591
      @johnmerrick9591 6 років тому +1

      I'm interested to hear that he gave his last London recital in 1963. As a young teenager I attended a recital he gave in the Festival Hall around then - my memory's very hazy, but it did include Chopin's A flat Polonaise, and it was in the afternoon rather than the evening. Might this have been his final London recital?

    • @piano345
      @piano345  4 роки тому +4

      @@johnmerrick9591 His 1963 recital had Chopin in the first half which included the Polonaise in A flat and the second half was all Liszt. He only gave two London recitals so I'm pretty sure this is the recital you attended. He did perform a number of concertos at the Royal Festival Hall including Liszt 1 and Hungarian Fantasy plus numerous encores, Grieg's concerto, Franck's Symphonic Variations and the Tchaikovsky B flat minor concerto.
