Sure, this interpretation is not for everyone, but for a public performance, I can't help thinking that this is exactly how Liszt would have played it: the uproar of the audience at the end says it all. Bravo! 👏 Thank you for choosing this remarkable interpretation.
6:46 I was looking for this for so long. I figured it was from Liszt, but I didn't know which piece it was. I kept singing the melody, but never found it out. I heard this piece before, but I forgot where that melody came from.
@@clarkebynum4623 in measures 9 and 10 the acelerando is absent. For it to be playable, the pianist would have to start slower than what was recorded here. Why did he choose to not play it? Because he did not think it’s important? Well, Liszt wrote it,
@@AlbertoSegovia. I see what you’re saying and I think there is validity to your statement and validity to the pianists performance. The Hungarian rhapsodies invite a more improvisational feel to them. Why follow everything to an exact T when you can explore things in the moment and have it come about more organic, even if less accurate? Different pianists take different approaches. I happen to really enjoy what Misha brings to the table in most performances but I also love a strict recounting of other repertoire. Zimmerman in the sonata comes to mind.
@@AlbertoSegovia.upon a second listen I’d actually say I hear an accelerando. It was preceded by a stark drop in tempo but the acceleration is still very much felt. Sure he doesn’t follow the exact written rhythm but it certainly feels like a gathering of speed.
What do you mean? This is not a particularly fast interpretation. 11 minutes and 24 seconds makes it more like a "slower" interpretation compared to other pianists, and there are some passages where he significantly takes it slow. I recommend listening to the whole performance, if you only listened to excerpts of it.

Misha never fails to give us an interesting and highly passionate performance. I absolutely love this.
BRAVO!!! Love this piece and haven't heard it for ages. Wonderful performance. Thank you!!
6:38 is brilliant
more passages on ending too
okay i found one more underrated less known pianist thx
If Liszt asked for an accelerating at the start, you might as well give us an accelerating and start slower. If not, what’s the point of the pianist?
I’m not sure I understand your comment at all

Speed and noise are not everything
