    A snatched interpretation of a prickly piece. This vertiginous waltz, burlesque parody of the operatic Mephistopheles in charge of seducing souls with mental traps without returning them, leaves no doubt about the power of vain expediency, tragicomic figure of fatuous radiance, like a luminous mannequin whose stage has the mystery which requires a moral representation made to frighten those who could be attracted by lust and worldly ease. To achieve this end the darkness is discerned or the abyss is touched - without succumbing - because it is a parody. The achieved effect of such a pianist must posses with a touch of luciferine (son of light, master of whirlwind and shadows). Not to forget that light and shadow are complementary as they are paradise and hell. Opposite but united, paradise and hell refer to each other; their existence is intimately interpenetrated. Without hell there would be no paradise, and without paradise there would be no hell. The infernal is the previous step to the conquest of the paradisaical, and the paradisaical, in turn, is a prelude to the fall towards the infernal.
