I promise you, you won’t hear a better version than this. The amount of work he put into learning and perfecting these symphony transcription is unparalleled
Not only that, Katsaris actually adds a significant amount of notes in each symphony to make these transcriptions even more textured and challenging than the originals! He’s a once in a lifetime musician
@@jackcurley1591 I supposed that's why the composer is listed as Beethoven/Liszt/Katsaris!
my favorite part starts from 0:00 to 11:30
Haha! Good one, I agree!
Can only imagine the surprise on Beethoven’s face if he were to hear someone playing his symphonies like THIS! Magnificent playing from maestro Katsaris as usual
How does he do the "flute" at 3:55? No one else I've heard so far does anything close!
one of best moments of piano playing in the world
I fond it too!!!
It's crazy, even though they show his hands there you gotta watch at 0.25 speed to very slightly see the scale gesture mixed in with the rest. Perfect "sleight of fingers", to be sure!
Isn't it just octave scales in the right hand...? If so it's impressive of course but not a big deal for a pianist of his calibre!
@@mach210000 it's about how he manages to fit all of the other voices in and still add the flute part
0:25 The eyebrows
LMAO
2:31 is another great moment
Cyprian, I first heard a piano version of Symphony 3 about 55 years ago and was fascinated by the setting. Your work brings MUCH joy in listening. Two qualities I particularly enjoy are your flawless playing with such wonderful interpretation, and your bringing out some symphonic lines which are often covered up in an orchestral presentation. Bravo, and thank you. I return often to listen to your recordings. Best regards! Tom in Chattanooga, TN
His voicing is incredible! You can tell he has immersed himself in the study of these pieces (the symphonic originals also). Breathtaking pianism!🔥🔥🔥
at 5:48 I started to see the ghost of Beethoven hovering above Cyprien's head, sending a chill down my spine
Hahaha yes just the cut from one frame to another with ghostly blur
3:50 my favorite
This is not an easy piece but the real difficulty is in the inner voicing. I own the complete set that CK did for Teldec and it is a revelation. He turned me on to LvB's 8th, a symphony I didn't really think much of until I heard what it was made up of via his recording. He brought out things that many excellent conductors failed to do.
holden4th He's also added stuff that's not in the written music.
@@victoza9232 its to make it sound more close to the original symphonic work because liszt left some things out
@@Montu-pc5gp Yes, I know. And it sounds great, but I had always thought Katsaris had overdubbed it. I see that he didn't.
@@victoza9232 ahh. ok
I think the Liszt piano transcriptions of the Beethoven Symphonies as played by Mr. Katsaris are even more inspiring than the original symphonic form.
The lines and ideas are much more clearly delineated.
#3 and #6 translate to solo piano the best.
How does this only have 17k views...
Absolute master, the final fugue 4:46 and the following slow variation are godlike.
Absolutely perfect. I’ve never heard an interpretation like this. Ktsaris received a great gift from God and he offers this gift to all of us.
WONDERFUL ! ! ! Thank you for posting !
Not only incredible playing but the greatest and most generous ambassador of piano music in this world. Liszt is proud of you, dear Cyprien!
I recommend to everyone to also listen to Beethoven's First. Audio-only with score. WOW. A symphony in Mozartian style equal or even better than the Jupiter Symphony. What an entre for Beethoven !!
Also, played by the legendary Mr. Katsaris. I started listening to it at 2am in bed and I could not stop until finished. A real page-turner and sleep burner.
Absolutely stunning. Such technique. What a brilliant piece from a man beyond the top of his profession.
E-x-t-r-a-o-r-d-i-n-a-i-r-e. Cet enregistrement est au plus haut sommet du piano et du reste d'ailleurs
We should beam this video into outer space....maybe the aliens won't obliterate us then.
My salutes to Maestro Katsaris!
3:50
Когда похож на Бетховена больше, чем сам Бетховен)
Straordinario! Great pianist, great composer, great piano! At 7:15 seems Wagner...
Is this the Choppin’ Broccoli guy?
Kidding… brilliant performance!
I just realized that young Beethoven looks like Simon Le Bon.
3:49
Utterly breathtaking! 🙏💓
Transcendental!!
yes '-' why beethoven never write anything like this for piano?
@@Tizohip try his eroica variations
@@furtvvanglerr8296 this is the liszt transcription
@@LMDAFL I'm aware
@@Tizohip because when Beethoven lived this music would be impossible for the pianos and for the pianists
Wow.. Amazing performance!
Beethoven and Liszt are giving a standing ovation in Heaven because you understand.
Not so sure if liszt is in heaven. lol
@@pianista-mediocre liszt was actually a great person. He wanted to be a priest before he became a musician, if i remember correctly
@@zegel9580 I'm making a joke about his various demon pieces
@@pianista-mediocre i thought you were talking about that, and the rumour of him selling his soul to the devil, i just wasnt sure if you really believed that he wouldnt go to heaven.
@@zegel9580 He was rather promiscuous (I don’t care but the god does)…
Brilliant in every way.
Vous êtes notre Franz Liszt aux allures de Beethoven. Merci pour cet agréable moment.
まるでベートーヴェン本人が演奏しているかのよう...
1:56 10:43
Sensationelle pianistische Kontrapunkte. Besser geht’s nicht.
The pinnacle of human musical achievement.
SUBLIME - ( You and LVB )
Incredible talent.
Pour jouer ça, même un talent génial doit "travailler comme un fou"!
Your Amazing, Brilliant!
Bravo!!!!!!!! Incredible and fantastic performance!!!!!! By the way, you look like Beethoven!!!!!
era finita
3:51
He had a wonderful control of the dymamics
Liszt un grande e Katzaris un mostro di bravura.Eccezionale.
BRAVO!
5:44 brilliant silent attack
This is really great.
9:00 Glenn Gould?
9:27 le crescendo!
2:40 art du contrepoint!
8:00 Beethoven lui-même au piano. Impérieuse grandeur! Même la coiffure et l’expression faciale y sont.
I'm utterly speechless!
若い❣️❣️
Thats so Tough!
Wonderful!
Pretty sure that is Beethoven himself...
Beethoven certainly didn't have the technique to play this
@@pianista-mediocre 😆
Außerirdisch!!!
Grandios!!!!
Legendary Katsaris, unparallel virtuosity
wow
More Bechstein videos please!!!
3:51
I wish the Contiguglia bros 2-piano version were available on CD to play a head to head with Katsaris' remarkable performances.
3:24
Welch harte Arbeit und nur ein paar Klicks nach 2 Jahren...😳
0:17 gimme those eyebrows bro
