THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! i hear such GREAT interpretation...so much like the ORCHESTRA in breadth , depth . and power and clarity...OH MY...the FORTISSIMOS are true ..the pianissimos have the intensity and glow of the real opera performance..as i i m listening to WILHELM FURTWANGLER directing the orchestra...with KIRSTEN FLAGSTAD singing her ISOLDE...IT S when you appreciate .. through THE Mastery of dumond straight from LISZT AND WAGNER themselves ... how the PIANIST should touch the piano to make it all come through.
Technically and musically, the Tannhasuer transcription has got to be one BEHEMOTH of a piece to perform. No doubt Dumont took many recording takes to make this the masterpiece that it truly is.
Liszt's paraphrase of Tannhäuser is so strikingly beautiful, equally as much a treat to listen to (or should that be "liszten to"?) as Wagner's original for orchestra.
If I remember right, Wagner would show Liszt some of the orchestra scores for his operas and Liszt would sightread and play it on the piano. Wagner often thought that Liszt's piano versions were superior to his orchestra versions
@@ET-PianistComposer That's fascinating, thanks. I've always felt that Liszt was one of the greatest transcribers of all time, and probably the most prolific. His skills at sight-reading were said to be truly astounding, and. theirs a story of a meeting with Grieg where he was given the score of the Norwegian's piano concerto, and he basically transcribed the piece at one sitting. Others with similar skills were the Liszt protege Saint-Saëns, who was just a flat-out genius (e.g., he could speak fluent Latin when he was seven). He was once in the company of Wagner and Von Bulow, and at one point he found the score of "Siegfried" on the piano, and played it so perfectly and with every effect included, that an astonished Von Bulow declared him to be "the greatest musical mind of our time". Rachmaninov is said to have had a photographic memory, able to perfectly recall any musical score after sight-reading it just twice.
@@Galantski Truly, the reasons we remember them all these years later. Reading about their mastery over music inspires me to continue my own musical journey. Particularly Liszt and Wagner to me. There’s a reason people thought Liszt sold his soul, and Strauss called Wagner “The Great Sorcerer” in regards to orchestration.
it must be how HYPNOTIC liszt himself made everything sound under this touch!! you are envelope in something BEYOND "keyboard" even ifyou are aware it is a piano...everything draws you into every notes...every breath...every stretch of time and pitch...and then you are enveloped in oceans of sound and music...and THOUGHT...amazing!!!
Of all the themes he could have chosen, the one Liszt arranged from the Ring cycle was the theme to Walhall!... What I would give to hear a Liszt arrangement of Siegmunds aria from the Valkyries or Wotans farewell to Brünnhilde...
Szinte természetes, hogy ezeket az átiratokat elkészítette. Bizonyára népszerűsíteni akarta barátját és később rokonát. Wagner sokszor leírta, mennyi támogatást köszönhet Liszt Ferencnek. A Ring elkészítésére buzdította, ami Wagner legnagyobb teljesítménye lett. Liszt a Parsifalt különösen kedvelte.
The beauty of music n its sounds n its peace. Tymeless. Drawing one n. 2 calm waters. Even when the tides of the 🌎 trys 2 come over you. It all stops because the peace within knows it can overcome tides waves. N its winds. Saling thru peacefully n calm waters. The music lives within let it sail you. N know u have da power 2 simply adjust you're sails. Thruout life.
Fun fact: Liszt was Wagner's dad-in-law though they were born only two years apart. Liszt disapproved of the marriage at first, and the two men would not speak to each other for some time, though they did eventually make up.
Cosima was married to Hans Von Bulow , Wagner's assistance and student of Franz Liszt.She could not take her eyes off from her only idol Wagner who is also her father's idol.
You are so correct. But Franz Liszt was at the top his game as a composer and pianist to me plus are many awesome composers even those that are not mentioned as much as they should be to me 😊
Yes, but his Mazeppa may have had some influence on Valkyries. Probably the orchestral version. Wagner learned a lot from Liszt's tone poems and 2 symphonies. I think they inspired and influenced each other.
Wagner composed for the piano and orchestrated the works later so it can't have been that hard for Liszt to "transcribe for piano" the original piano score.
More accurately, Wagner's composition sketches were usually done on three staves. Then followed the orchestral sketch, and finally the full score for voices and orchestra. The sketches by their nature underwent revision, rearrangement, transposition, and modification. There never was a finished "piano version" that was subsequently orchestrated. The full score was the only thing published, of course. Many people in the nineteenth century had no chance to hear Wagner's works in an opera house, and there was no radio, record players, or internet. Liszt performed the very valuable task of reducing the orchestral/vocal score to a piano transcription that could (in principle) be played at home.

OUTSTANDING PLAYING..I LOVE THE MARCH OF THE HOLY GRAIL..POWERFUL THERE NO OTHERS TO EXPRESS LISZT'S TRANSCRIPTIONS OF ALL WAGNER'S WORKS.............
Pianista di una bravura mostruosa, soprattutto nell'Ouverture del Tannhauser!
Thank you Liszt, for your stunning work.
Des transcriptions admiratives et admirables des œuvres majeures de son gendre Richard Wagner par le dieu du piano Franz Liszt!
Une interprétation remarquable. Liszt en serait fier et Wagner encore plus ! François Dumont un pianiste à suivre.

Bio me pedo perder está transcripsion. Aunque a los sabiondos no les guste ....

This is what I tell scholars about and they stay shock in awe.
The Overture to Tannhauser is a 'killer' for any professional pianist !
And breathtakingly beautiful at the same time!
@@Galantski And that's make it the most challengingly beautiful !
I will play it one day, I will
@@Jupiterssilhouette Lots of courages from me !
@@Jupiterssilhouette From me too, mr.
This might be my new favorite piano music
Of all the themes he could have chosen, the one Liszt arranged from the Ring cycle was the theme to Walhall!... What I would give to hear a Liszt arrangement of Siegmunds aria from the Valkyries or Wotans farewell to Brünnhilde...
Liszt es maravilloso!!!además de su cantidad de composiciones también las transcripciones de diferentes colegas,,,maravilloso liszt eternoooo
thank you, beautiful music
Indeed.
BEAUTIFUL TRANSCRIPTION & INTERPRETATION 💝 💝 💝 💝 💝
Divino.
Merci.

Very nice!
The Overture from Tannhauser is my favorite piece of piano music. Because it's so difficult----ain't I a stinker? Well, *YES*
Very interesting 👍
Maravilloso
好美麗的樂章
Had no idea about these until I read Peter Galsworthy's Maestro
Nice
Gracias !!!!

Liszt finally agree because his son in law and assistance to Richard Wagner Hans Von Bulow is no where near Wagner himself.
Cosima was married to Hans Von Bulow , Wagner's assistance and student of Franz Liszt.She could not take her eyes off from her only idol Wagner who is also her father's idol.
Sounds like a porn plot to be honest.
Just imagine an evening in their house both playing the piano.
@@tigerboom9030 how is your nose? Let me guess, very hooked with big nostrils?
#Muitobom............
Liszt see what this is all about.
Années en pèlerinage revues?
Interestingly liszt never made a transcription of Valkyries

(To Chris): I kind of doubt it, given the writing of Wagner's piano works - even in decent works such as the A flat Sonata.
Low voice
UA-cam DEMENT SERVICE!
So Liszt is a transcriptionist. More than a composer?
No
Both things, an incredible composer. Love Dream and Un Sospiro are my favorite of his works.
He was one of the most famous transcriptions, having arranged many works by other composers, including the Beethoven symphonies, among many others.
Si es transcripción. ....,.Horowiths.
All composer are "transcriptionists" too: see the incredible stuff of transcription by J.S.Bach after works of Vivaldi, Pergolesi, etc.
