AND A GREAT MUSICAL CREATOR...he creates marvelous musicscapes using another creator's, the composer's original composition. He goes outside the boundaries of standard expected interpretations, to produce one of a kind, unique sound architectures.
@@YTSeiyaGoFire nah Cziffra is easily one of the best technicians of all time. Katsaris calls him the best pianist of the 20th century. Katsaris is as good as it gets. I'll trust him.
Pogorelic was certainly pushing himself in this one - this is an impossible tempo (even for Pogorelic), a few places lose some of their magic at this breakneck speed. That said, his Stretta is an absolute marvel, never heard it so explosive (it's up a notch even from Berman or Cziffra), and somehow it is still crisp and clean - that's some truly transcendental technique right there. Too fast for what I'd subjectively prefer, but still highly enjoyable. The rest of the interpretation is also stupendous, but the sheer speed and the ensuing consequences end up becoming a distraction for me.
I personally find that other people playing this either go crazy slow or cziffra crazy, bit pogolerich just scratches that itch of mine, as well as his other interpretations of the transgender etudes.
finally a performer who makes Liszt's circus acts sound like music. Pogorelich's recording of Liszt's sonata in B is probably one of the best recordings out there.
This is one of those “just because you can doesn’t mean you should” type of performances. The technique displayed here is absolutely awesome-inspiring…but the end result is a brutal, harsh, rushed, mad dash, where much of the harmonic and melodic ideas are brushed past in a display of virtuosity. Those descending alternating chords have some great progressions in them that are a central motif and part of the melodic idea, but he just breezes through them. The ending Stretto is such a great march like build up, and again a melodic idea, but here it’s just breezed past with no consideration. And interesting, the climax of the piece with those repeated incessant and insistent octaves lacks power in large part because he’s already playing at full gusto from the beginning, so when he finally gets there, there’s nothing more to give and no place higher to go. I really prefer a performance that is slower and more thoughtful, building to the big central section, and with some restraint before the stretto. We have to remember the idea of “appassionata” was not Liszt’s, bur rather a subtitle given by Busoni. Liszt did not title études 2 and 10. But even so, even if it were actually called Appassionata, there’s a difference between appassionata and patetico. This is impressive, but I wouldn’t want to hear it again and it doesn’t have the effect I think it could have beside just making you go “wow”.
You talk too much. You love words and wordplay more than music and it's manifestation as the product of a great virtuoso who uses a composition to display a greater interpretation than had hitherto been provided by numerous pianists over time.❤❤❤
This performance sounds far too scrambled. Pogorelich does not really find the lyrical line; the music needs more space. It may be a feat to play the stretta like that, but not a particularly musical feat. I had to turn to Tiffany Poon's performance for a corrective. Hers rivals that of Cziffra. In the hands of Tiffany Poon the piece is revealed as great music, whereas with Pogorelich it appears as a showcase. th-cam.com/video/f-fN8_YK1GI/w-d-xo.html
And you definitely should be mad. Probably the madness displayed in the tumultuous performance is what one would call "controlled madness" under the inspiration of musical genious not seen or heard regularly by most Performances.
Disagreed.. Cziffra’s overly sentimental and choppy interpretation has a few glorious moments, but this is in general a better interpretation, which captures better the intentions of the composer imho.
@@Whaijorhujishkomunyk maybe in your opinion! if you like the slowly accelerating train leaving the station effect, several times through the whole piece, Cziffra is your man for this piece
Absolutely not! It is too slow, for someone whose mind is moving as fast as the speed of light, but the fingers and physical implementation is restricted under current physical laws.

I love how he played the final part here.
Holy shit its you
How did he play with so much strength
0% muscular tension, is as simple as that, but not as easy as it sounds.
with strength
Enormous hands
I dont know buddy, I dont know...
He didn’t, it’s the sound quality which makes it appear so
The stretta part sounds like an absolute machine gun. Stunning
That's why this is my favorite version
I'm going insane just tryn' to figure out how he does that
@@jamesbigfan300 alieni si nasce....

Hands down the best interpretation

Colosal. Inmenso. Incomparable. Genio
Thw stretta sounds like a cello string section going nuts in a symphony
Fantastic!
Young Pogorelich. Astounding Artistry
It felt like it was being played with an orchestra.
Jesus..
Am crying now😢
Overall good performance! Although sounds kinda harsh
Only Pogorelić can play like this. Almost no one can compare, perhaps not even Liszt himslef
Except Cziffra
@@kitkatstyle i think cziffra lacks passion and soul in the music

@@Oak13766 Cho is really good. But this is different. This transcends reality.
I don't think Liszt play like this. Even close

Even better than Pogorelich’ recording of the b minor is his live performance on TH-cam from 1993!
"Liszts circus acts" where did they teach you that moron in the conservatory?
Hardly circus acts. They sound like that when interpreted by lesser pianists.
It is THE best in my humble opinion.
You cannot say that liszt does circus acts, you are officially clinically insane for saying that.
