Exactly! I suffered through 11 years of metronome exercises, boring arpeggios, and not playing with my friends to play this in 9th grade. Yes, it takes talent, but nobody just sits down and plays this piece.
@@duqueadriano0081 Keep playing, and don't break any hands or fingers in the meantime. I played football and baseball, and now do carpentry for a living. I can't even play the first page anymore. Keep it up! It's worth the sacrifice!!
@@duqueadriano0081 I gave it up for stupid reasons. I have regretted it every day for 30 years. Don't quit! I tried to play Minuet in G, last night for my daughter, and barely struggled through it. I can play a pretty good banjo though, and still play the trumpet! Still, not the same. Don't give it up!!
I find it extremely snobbish that some of you disrespect those who are here because of Tom & Jerry or Bugs Bunny. The creators of those shows knew exactly what they were doing. Exposing children to great classical music. The fact that they come here today as adults to listen again is a testament of their appreciation of the classics and hopefully will be exposed to more.
Some people just need to find a way to feel better somehow, forgetting that for most people, popular media of some kind is how they get into classical music of any kind. I think Benjamin Zander made the point that a lot of the musicians themselves always perform with the idea that just 1% of all music listeners will listen to classical, and they have this sort of snobbish antipathy and resignation instead of trying to be cheerful that a, they have an audience, and b, that they have the opportunity to grow it. My words, not his. He's a lot nicer and funnier about it.

Nikita Lourdey valentina lisitsa rushes at the end! (She playes always good, but unfortunately she usually rushes) I don't know why these two pianists play so much different! I wonder witch of them is the main composition! Maybe non of theme!
I like the way Valentina plays, her tempo shows her feeling, and I think the song was meant to be played somewhat frantic, also I think it would be how Liszt would have played it
As a pianist I can tell you she’s not feeling a “high” while she plays. Playing music takes a toll emotionally and it is extremely difficult. Nothing about it is fun for the musician, we do not space out during performances. It’s extremely focused work that is about as tedious and nerve wracking as performing surgery. If your just playing the same 4 chords over and over again in isorhythmic fashion (pop, rock, blues, jazz) it’s a different story. Then you can space out and get “high”. Not when you play Liszt or anything complex
@@randykern1842 as a piano student i can tell you i do get a huge adrenaline rush whenever i play live, and that might well be the high OP is referring to. admittedly i can't play pieces like this yet, but the stuff i do play is pretty complex to me, therefore i get all the boiling blood and stuff because of nerves. and i'm pretty sure most people goe through similar experiences whenever performing. also, did you really say jazz is the same 4 chords played with the same rhythm and no complexity to it? you clearly don't play it lmao
@@randykern1842 Lmao what? Of course learning Liszt requires lots of hard work and focus,. But it's also very fun. If you're not enjoying yourself while performing, you're playing music for all the wrong reasons
I was taught to play a condensed version for a recital when I was a child... As I get older I've learned you have to feel the song as it's played. Its fair to say I was a mechanic as a kid. Your comment made me smile
Salieri to Mozart: Your music has, what do you say, how do you say Kappelmeister? Kappelmeister: Too many notes sir. Salieri: Yes, too many notes! Just cut a few and it'll be perfect.......NEXT! * Liszt comes up to perform * Salieri's head explodes.
I love the way she defines and brings to the forefront parts of this piece that seem to be rushed over or quieted by other artists. Particularly the "stumble" notes really stand out and tickle the hell out of me. Thanks.
She plays it very cleanly. Not too fast nor too slow. Best version I've heard so far. Horowitz is playing a different version of this, so I'm not judging that. I much prefer Poon's interpretation to Lisitsa's version, which somehow sounds like full of errors. Lang Lang is too eccentric and his interpretation is a bit too 'crazy'.
Bland?! Really? Bland would be not having dynamic contrast or tempo changes, and no feeling whatsoever. You could obviously see she was getting into the music
I think it's just a personal taste, so it's fine to feel whose version is the best for you . I listened to all the other pianists versions who are in the youtube video and I love Tiffany's version is the best when it comes to this piece so far. She is playing exactly what I want a pianist to play for this piece. That's how I feel. I'm commenting here because I love Tiffany's this performance a lot. If I prefer other pianist's version , I would not bother to comment here.
i agree. I think this rendition is the best, but what's amazing is that she's so young, with so little experience and yet she can play the piece this well
I love this version, not too fast but not overly romantic and slow. Clean and we can actually hear what notes are being played unlike Valentina's performance. Personally i loved this one better than most of the performances
I love the way, at the finale, she plays the notes from left and right hand just a hair out of step with each other. It makes it so much more dramatic. I think that proves she has a complete understanding of the piece. Love it!!!
As a professional musician (Brass Instrumentalist & Bass Guitarist), I am BLOWN AWAY by Miss Poon's rendition of Liszt's work! WOW is all I can say!! A truly outstanding performance!
My favorite Hungarian Rhapsody, her polyrhythms (change of tempo / rhythms) and the way she attacks notes at certain times seem so opportune and done with so much emotion, personal touch and timing. To my ear this is the most pleasant hearing and to my heart the most touching of this so pleasing soulful piano piece.
@@michieldpiano I will, thanks for letting me know you had one. I actually started before replying. There is some marked differences right away like your note length sounds shorter vs tiffany's and your cadence / speed is for now at least faster. I can't wait to hear the rest. You said you've know this a toddler... you mean you know this song as a toddler, what age did you learn playing it? Thanks
@@gilbertlegault5462I played it by ear when I was 16. This recording recording is Inspired my life experiences. My candenza is entirely improvized. My version is for sure different and according to great connoisseurs (from concert halls, legendary pianists, etc...) the best version of today. Sorry to tell you but Poon and Lisistsa do not understand Liszt. They play what they are thought. Both recordings are not even in my top 100. UA-cam is no place for genius pianists without charisma. I am releasing my first CD in March (Schubert D960 and Schumann - Kreisleriana + love lieder) and then I go into nature and forget myself.
@@michieldpiano I will write a message on your you tube version. Thanks so much for your time replying and messaging. The recordings is so different (one in a concert version and yours sounds more like studio or even home studio right?) as the "mechanics" are. This piece is genius or insanity depending on how you want to play it ;-)!
Tiffany dear ,,, You're a remarkable Artist, indeed you are, since your interpretation to this work is really brilliant ,, it happens that I've nearly 15 records for this Rhapsody, performed by the greatest pianists, and I personally, consider your performance had excelled many of them ,, Bravo Tiffany, you'll be having a great promising artistic career.
I like how she seems to be dancing with the music in some parts. I don't know all versions of this masterpiece. So I cannot say which one is the best, and I don't want to, because I think it is a silly thing to do. There are so many different ways to play a piece. To describe one of them as the best in most cases means that you want to sell your own opinion as the best and not the music. But what I can say is that I like this version. And I like that the camera is fixed and you can see what she does instead of being destracted by a director's showing off his incredible abilities of zooming.
Her phrasing has such delicacy and perfection it almost defies description. I wanted to heap praise on her expressive interpretation and her flawless execution of rubato, something many Liszt performers treat as an afterthought. Not here! She holds these notes with the care and wonder in which we would hold the face of a new born baby in our hands. Its a true revelation hearing this. It is indeed rare to hear such perfection in piano performance. Lots of people can play lots of notes with expertise. Only a handful touch our heart like this.
She makes my heart beat singing with her music. Her emotional expression makes me up and down with the piece. Love Tiffany's interpretation over Lisitsa. Will keep on following her channel ：）
Why do I feel so much pain inside when I listen to this song? Amazing performance. I enjoyed watching her fingers' stances change as she was hammering the keys. Incredible speed and accuracy to match. I can only imagine what she feels while playing.
Lots of comments about who's version is best, so I'll put my 2 cents in. If you want it classical and clean - Adam. If you want it rock and roll - Valentina. If you want your heart touched - Tiffany. If you want to hear completely destroyed versions - either Lang Lang or that curly brunette (can't remember her name).
I find this is my favourite version of HR2, however I much prefer Valentina's Moolight Sonata to Tiffany's. I don't know why, but I feel like she stumbles in a couple of spots but then IANE
btw lang lang's version is in the Horowitz Arrangement so thats why its rather different because thats ow it is and lmao stands for laughing my arse off or ass if your american
I would suggest that laughing one's ass off should be wrong even for an American considering it's donkey. An arse on the other hand is one's posterior. Once an ass, always an ass you might say. An ass can also be a person acting somewhat stupid, through association with the way donkeys behave compared to horses.
Thanks. Music, like humor or literature is so completely subjective to any individual taste that it's difficult to agree upon. If I unwittingly disparaged yours or anyone else's likes or dislikes, I apologize. By the way, I am American, but arse is more elegant, I think.
Gee Tiffany, this was so wonderful that I listen to it almost every day...and if I don't play it on my computer it still goes around and around in my head!
What beautiful piece of work I have watched and listened to this 5 times tonite its poetry . I am watching a master play ! I wonder what this woman is experiencing while playing this complex piece of music ? Wow !!
Tiffany played it clearly with many colours and we could hear the detail of the piece. I like it very much!!! I think this is the best version that I have ever heard.
@@FoggedTears after spending a year on learning it you simply move your hands all day playing it on the table on the wall just everywhere... it's called muscle memory
@@FoggedTears Honestly, memorization isn't much of a problem for pianist. They practice it so much it naturally takes a place in muscle memory and long term memory.
Tbh, if you are familiar with the technique used in this, it will be easier for you and since the Friska almost always only use two chords you won’t have any problem with that (I’m 14 attempting this beast, i composed exercises for myself and that helped me get through this)
I didn't realize I made the comments below four years ago, but I just watched this performance again and enjoyed it even more than last time. Well done, Tiffany! Keep up the good work!
Creación pianística grandiosa y maravillosa; por fin la encuentro en la versión perfecta, con cada nota nítida, y toda la obra en el tempo preciso, según imagino debe ser. ¡Bravo!
Excellente interprétation, peut-être une des meilleures, tout en sobriété, une virtuosité contenue, au service de Liszt, et non pour sa propre gloire. C'est remarquable. Bravo à la jeune Tiffany Poon, une grande pianiste (tout le contraire, par exemple, de Lang Lang, immature et qui en fait des tonnes).
Wow! I love the way you play this so beautifully. Flawless! Absolutely nothing could be done to improve your perfect performance. I've listened to others perform this and yours is the best by far. Bravo!
this is the profoundest exhibition of human talent that i have ever seen. sublime perfection. there will never be a better interpretation and performance of this piece.
This is the best version of this piece I've ever heard...so much more graceful than Valentina's by a long shot....to think she was so young when this was recorded too! truly so inspirational and beautiful
I totally enjoyed Ms. Poon's rendition of Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 in C sharp Minor. She has totally inspired me to learn classical piano. I am also from Hong Kong and an Alum of Teachers College CU. Bravo!!!!
Tiffany Poon is an up and coming star, every year she reaches a greater audience. It will be delightful to follow her in her career and appreciate her wonderful talent and hard work.
To My Goddess Of All Pianos, I am a normal 11 year old boy who's life is boring, bland and dull. I play the piano but Im not even 1/4 as good as you. I really hope to be like you someday.
I dislike the term “gifted” - This is the result of intense discipline, determination and very hard work - for a long time. Bravo Tiffany 👏

You should listen to Adam Gyorgy's version, that one is my personal favorite.
I prefer Hamelins' take on it; little faster of a tempo, much longer solo section. Poon does a great job though.
I agree with 'very cleanly'. Also this is the version I'm familiar with, so I'm a bit biased, so I agree that Lang Lang versions sounded very messy.
It's clean but pretty bland. If you like the pace watch gyorgy's version it's phenomenal

Bravo à la jeune Tiffany Poon, une grande pianiste (tout le contraire, par exemple, de Lang Lang, immature et qui en fait des tonnes).
Every time I watch/listen to this it brings tears to my eyes.
Tom played this with only 4 fingers on both hands.. #JustSaying 😎
Wow! I love the way you play this so beautifully. Flawless! Absolutely nothing could be done to improve your perfect performance. I've listened to others perform this and yours is the best by far. Bravo!
I swear, this is the most fun piece
This is the best version for me. I had this thought 2 years ago when I watched this, and I still think so today.
It is my favorite interpretation of hungarian rhapsody 2!
FOR SURE, ITS MY FAVOURITE TOO.
Valentina play's very well too !
so beautiful pure dedication
Tiffany; great performance as usual, thank you for share with us your passion.
This is awesome 🥰
I've seen this video countless times
amazing! especially at 1:50 WOW i feel like if it was a butterfly flying or something. sucha a prodigy since young age
Lord this is amazing, hopefully I'll be that good eventually
this is the profoundest exhibition of human talent that i have ever seen. sublime perfection. there will never be a better interpretation and performance of this piece.
This is my absolute favorite rendition of this piece
Those head movements at the beginning tho... amazing performance
WE ARE NOT WORTHY....
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT
SO INCREDIBLE!!! I wish I could play this!!!!
How the hell can anybody write something like this let alone play it? Blows my mind. Fabulous Tiffany
Amazing interpretation
Liszt some real bad-ass priest composer
Haha maybe he was the heavy metal of his day I guess where parents say don't listen or play this song 😂
Agreed. A masterpiece. Both the song itself and the interpretation. I'm not sure even Litz himself could play that good.
Probably the best version .......Kudos to Tiffany!
This is the best version of this piece I've ever heard...so much more graceful than Valentina's by a long shot....to think she was so young when this was recorded too! truly so inspirational and beautiful
Hello @Rachel would you mind listening to my version on my channel?
Love the buildup from 5:22. You go Girl! Like she was born doing this.
THE BEST! Best rendition - best everything. Delicate Forte!
When this video first came out, I would listen to it over and over, imagining it playing at my own future
JUST PERFECT !!!
BRAVISSIMO! I love this girl
I totally enjoyed Ms. Poon's rendition of Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 in C sharp Minor. She has totally inspired me to learn classical piano. I am also from Hong Kong and an Alum of Teachers College CU. Bravo!!!!
Tiffany Poon is an up and coming star, every year she reaches a greater audience. It will be delightful to follow her in her career and appreciate her wonderful talent and hard work.
wow performed. love it
To My Goddess Of All Pianos,
I am a normal 11 year old boy who's life is boring, bland and dull. I play the piano but Im not even 1/4 as good as you. I really hope to be like you someday.
Pepper It’ll happen - just NEVER make the biggest mistake any pianist can ever make in their entire career - giving up. I believe in you.
LapraLapso well I don't!
If you are 1/4 of her you're a fucking monster dude
Same, if u don’t believe click me channel
The best version I've ever heard
What a beautiful dress! And beautiful rendition
