Little-known fact: the energy generated by her fingers during this performance powered the lights in the concert hall for the next 17 months.
Ahahahaah fuck no
Hahahah , you made my day man !
Ha ha, great...
i would not want to be a lesbian with her
Ha ha ha ha. That's funny...
Liszt is typically known for his early beginner pieces like this
Take a few online lessons, chill, and there's nothing to easy stuff like this.
Yea man, La Campanella was also a classic
Mark Fowler it’s a joke bruf
Mark Fowler op was telling a joke.
Mark Fowler it was a joke dude calm down
this is completely insane. her hands move so fast you can barely tell which keys she's pressing, it looks like they don't even touch the keys. i'm speechless
its a thing to say whoever invented the piano did such a good job that it can keep up with her fingers.. thanks, V!~
Same here ❤❤❤❤Love
Mostly F Sharp and C Sharp will be pressed
And she memorized every single note.
I missed anyone else mentioning that the piece is committed to her memory, no sheet music to flip through, so she has full emotional focus. Love it.
Yes, that is typical of a pianist playing a piece, especially one of this difficulty
That is completely trivial and comes naturally with any difficult piece.
But even then, if you know it by heart, there's still a _loooong_ phase of still having to focus on the technique, difficult parts etc. Most hobbyists get stuck in this phase.
Even the piano is wondering wtf is happening
good one ha ha ha
lol
...and thinking: WOW! I didn't even know it was in me all the time!
Waterfalls
it's Tom and Jerry fighting :))
When she's faster than your internet
*cries in third world*
Loool cries in third world
almost had a heart attack! bahahahahha!
I feel you bruh
loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
cries in german, wait is that legal yet?
Saw this 12 years ago and still haven't seen another performance of Hungarian rhapsody no.2 better.
Rousseau’s was also great.
Yeah like that part at 1:49 to 1:57 sounds so different than the others I’ve heard, it’s almost sounds like she hits different keys than others, also the part from 5:14 to 5:18
Лучший - Гилельс!
1. This is absolutely my favorite classical performance by any artist on any instrument
2. Her hands were moving so fast in the middle that it almost seemed like a big joke, not intentional. A nearly psychotic level of playing.
3. What’s more daunting is that Liszt actually intentionally wrote this. He dreamed to extract from the piano as much as humanly possible. Will anyone ever extract more?
It seemed like watching a cartoon! Completely amazing.
I think nothing can top this. Maybe you can play faster but making it sound as harmonic as this at the same time is nearly impossible
@@switterbeet this is on the very edge of the realm of possible, as a not genetically enhanced human. I would guess with no genetic engeneering no natural born human will ever surpass this level of skill.
You haven´t heard of Kazuhito Yamashita, for me the artist most "scary technique" i know
@@williamtaittinger4529 While she plays this piece extremely well, I think that you simply lack understanding
You watch her and you think how can she even play this? Then you think, how can some one even write this?
Step 1: be Franz Liszt
Step 2: Cry because you´re not Franz Liszt
felix villarreal step 3: Give up and play the flute
Step 4: Call a suicidal help-line, so that you don't do that.
Step 5: Eat everything in the house because you tried and hey that's good enough you deserve it as you sit there crying because you failed
Scientists: Nothing can travel faster than light
Valentina: Hold my vodka

Checkmate, atheists
hahahahahaha
Lmao
lol
I watched Valentina playing this piece live in September 2022 at Sala São Paulo - Brazil, it was the most impressive thing i've ever seen in my life, I couldn't hold back the emotions, it made me feel so emotional I cried a lot and had goosebumps the whole concert, it was magical. And then I had the opportunity of meeting her in person, she was so sweet to all the Brazilian fans. ❤️
😊👍👏👏👏
I don't blame you. The best musical performances are a transcendent experience and overwhelm you with emotion. I'd love to see her perform in person.
ela é uma das minhas maiores inspirações, eu não consegui ir assisti-la pessoalmente, que grande privilégio! ❤❤❤
You are very fortunate ❤
Shoutout to Liszt for not making this COMPLETELY impossible to play. For reference, the guy had Shaq hands, he could press Caps Lock and use the num pad with one hand at the same time
***** Exaggerations get the point across.
I thought that was pretty funny.
That's using two hands for me just to reach caps lock and the num pad. ;u; R.I.P. Fingers
I spent a good 12 weeks on his Liebestraum no.3 and it never was performance ready. That's one of his more playable pieces, I can't imagine even getting halfway through this piece. I think he wrote piano music just to show off how great he was, only virtuoso's can play his work.
***** It's been forever, but I remember it being a 16th that one of them could stretch.
She is my great great great great granddaughter
Franz Liszt Oh dear.
@@keyyf7039 LOL
@@keyyf7039 Hi!
xLxszt CH Hello there.
Too funny. :)
Legend says the piano never forgot her. You can still find it roaming the streets aimlessly, trying to find Valentina.
She literally transform any masterpiece in a better and deeper experience. We admire her and love her.

Me: Looking at Hungarian Rhapsody No.2's Music Sheet
I’m laughing way too hard at this. I think about this when I play rachminoff
@@BedardJ Do you mean Rachmaninow?
Ha, now look at Erlkonig.
"Let me intoduce my friend, carpal tunnelling"
@@ogthekingofbashan333 there are so many more pieces that are exceptionally more difficult than Erlkonig, Idk why youd mention that of all things.
Best part is how much fun she looked to be having.
Once you actually learn this piece, it is so fun to play. It's just getting there is really hard. Franz Liszt was kind of a showoff
@@GreyWind1988
I feel the same about playing 'Blame It On The Rain' drum.
@@GreyWind1988 because he did a lot of concerts, but Liszt has a lot of beautiful pieces that are not virtosistic too. I love both sides of Liszt but he wasn't only a showoff.
Not at the last few seconds. Her forearms were probably dying. I'm a pianist, I know how bad the forearms ache by the end of a song lol
@@GreyWind1988 you can’t really know if he was showing off or did because of his love for his music, you can actually feel the love and devotion he had towards music if you listen Hungarian rhapsody or la Campanella which wasn’t even his composition .
As a pianist I agree with you. Amazing technique. What people don't always realize is that to accomplish these pieces at such high technical and mature emotionally, first both sides of the brain is being used simultaneously. Second, to achieve the dexterity in the fingers takes years and thousands if not tens of thousands of hours practicing over and over, increasing the mm a notch each day so that your fingers glide effortlessly across the keys. Thirdly, also takes the ability to change emotions as to convey the story you are weaving on the piano. There was s so much more than most people realize. Amazing performance.
Thanks - that sometimes we feel too alone when there are no affinity buddies in sight. I am not a musician, but anyway was impressed by what I was calling 'the harmony of execution'. Your «both sides of the brain» helped me in having a more precise idea. But, again, I'll stick to 'harmony' since for me it is more a question of feeling the harmony of sound than feeling emotions, though I know that it is all connected. Could be because I got polarized by the difference in interpretations, where the world-known ones, with great technical skills, miss completely the 'harmonic feeling'. Among them the very known LL, that to me seems just an extremely fast piano typist.
The long pause at 5:03 really nails it. I had watched so many other players doing this rhapsody and none of them made any sense; all sounded like schizophrenic incoherent performances. Now Valentian's pause finally made sense of the whole thing. There is a transition of mood that all other players didn't capture.
Most pianists with pieces like this have a ''look, I CAN play this'' vibe.
Lisitsa has the ''I feel this piece'' vibe.
Literally most of the pianists do this pause as it's literally written on the sheet music but okay
bingo
H-How- How in the HELL did she do that?! She's super human! So fast, her fingers were a blur! Poor Jerry. She killed him for sure.
watch hamelin play his cadenza of this piece it is incredible
Muscle memory.
It is very simple, she is made in the image of God. And it certainly has nothing to do with hell.
i thought everyone was made in the image of god. why cant i play it :(
Superoxide Dismutase God doesn't exist.
She used a typewriter once. There were no survivors. Incredible skills.

😂
She always leaves one alive to tell the tale
Then how did you know when there were no survivors?
This was the performance that brought me into classical at the age of 12. Now i am 16, play the piano and am completely in love withthe music of Schumann and Bach. Returning to this video gives me so many memories of where my obsession began and how my taste changed over the years.
Cried through most of this. What a brilliant performance, I don’t even have words
I smoke, then watch, at certain moments my heart bursts and eyes tearing up.
the craziest part is not the fact this piece is so unbelievably difficult. it’s not even how fast she can play. the craziest part is how much control she has over the volume when she’s playing so fast and how smooth and fluid she can play this song. it’s almost as if her fingers are made of water.
And its all from her memory no notes infront of her!!!!
Memory is the easiest part
@@ngyuzhemoe7107 you know, you’re not wrong there. in my first month of playing piano i memorized chopin’s nocturne op. 9 no. 2 but i still have trouble with arpeggios and i been playing for about a year now
@@ngyuzhemoe7107 memorizing easier than reading notes?
@@dinaalsaigh165no, memorising is easier than learning the techniques. By the time you’ve practised enough to be able to do this you’ve already memorised it whether you meant to or not
I can't imagine how many countless days/years it takes to master something like this, but the look of absolute ecstasy on her face says it all. This woman is loving what she does. That's all that matters.
Yep. Even the hardest things could be easily done if you like it.
It took me half a year (same as Heroic Polonaise) to get it to proper tempo plus another 6 months to polish it to performance level. I prefer Adam Gyorgy’s more steady rendition or maybe CIffra’s.
Tim Countis also true but she’s sometimes so fast she doesn’t even play all the notes, e.g. at 8:10 when she literally smudges the right hand scales, but of course her rendition is overall more tempestuous than, say, Gyorgy.
Domen Sever could you upload it to TH-cam? I want to see it played by You. Also from what age did you start learning piano and how long do you practice each day?

Valentina approaches.
Piano: Oh shit, here we go again.
*traumatic flashbacks*
Brilliant comment
The piano says: Valentina approaches; 'Oh shit..'
Just a thought. Imagine writing this piece of music..... Imagine not being some future interpreter, but the instigator, the composer. Thats the level beyond.
You have a very strange name. I have a strange name too.
Tty
It is incredibly impressive how she not only has mastered the technical aspect of this, but also managed to simultaneously communicate a full spectrum of emotions that really draws one in, all while making it look so effortless and her face exposing how much she is truly enjoying it! Her passion shines and she is absolutely amazing 🤍
I'm glad this girl gave the drums away and took up piano. Brilliant.
We're so blessed to live in an era where we can listen to this world class pianist right here.
Same shit for the people in the 18th century
No, very few people in the 1800s could have heard this.
I think you meant to say, “people are so blessed to have lived in an era where they could listen to the world class pianist(Franz Liszt) right there”
At least a mouse wasn't hiding in the piano to ruin it again.

Bravo 👏 👏 👏 and thank you 😊 👏
This is unreal. I've watched and listened to this a few times and it never fails to blow me away
One of those rare performances that will remain a testament to what a human being is capable of
Don't forget the composition itself.

That’s hilarious
It‘s Lisztomania all over again
Speechless. Jaw dropping speechless.
The way her hands play so lightly as if there was no strain on her hands, and the way her fingers flit over the keys so quickly and lightly is so elegant.
She is very good with not tensing up. Thats what allows her to play at such speeds. You can even see it in her biceps, they rapidly flex and relax instead of just staying flexed most of the time. She is optimizing her energy very well to be able to play at this speed.
Shoulders relaxed, hands relaxed. You can get much faster explosive speed that way compared to being tense all the time.
It's the Russian Piano School technique. The first thing kids learn is how to relax the wrist and arm.
yeah i’m like in awe her touch with the piano at some points looks like she’s caressing it to play the notes
not only is her technique impeccable, her bicep and forearm muscles are also very strong!
Has anyone noticed how happy she is playing this? There are multiple camera angles where it is just her smiling. This is probably the best performance of this piece I have ever seen, because until the time machine is invented, I will never see Liszt play.
Or some successful necromancy.
Or maybe you are looking at Liszt in this video
Looks like she enjoy the challenge :D
Yes the smiling is wonderful. Martha Argerich also does that and it seems almost enchanting to me. Just a wonderful experience.
If I can play this piece I will die smiling whatever killed me
THIS IS SUPERNATURAL!! No one can play like this. WOW
I am utterly in awe of Valentina's playing. God has made human beings as incredible, gifted spirits !! WOW.
I love watching her face as she plays. You can tell she absolutely loves what she does. She not only has a technical grasp of the music she plays, she also has emotional attachment as well.
It was like seeing the Goddess of music herself playing the piano: "Ah, yes. Just like that day..."
300 likes. Kudos.
yes
True talent and passion
SIMPPP
Play it on 2* speed and your phone will disappear because you have broken the space time continuum violating the speed of light
LMAO
Her tempo changes are so moving and ridiculously on point. Jaw-dropping performance.
Best performance i have ever seen in my entire life 😮❤

Respectively, I think all Liszt pieces are significantly harder than Moonlight 3rd movement
One of the most beautiful pieces of all time.
yes sir ! lady!!!
2.7 thousand dislikes?
Must be the piano tuners' union
I'm sure that has to do with her political opinions. I don't like her politics, but I love her playing!
Or you are living inside the piano, trying to sleep...
I think 2.7 thousand is the number of c# at 5:28
theoldar what are her politics ?
probably all the concert pianists who cannot play as well as she can!
Fun fact: She burned 1000 calories here with her fingers alone
In one of her interviews she actually talked about her hand muscles 🤣
Wow that is crazy
Is that really true??
Chaitanya Chaudhary no lol her heart rate is no where near cardio levels aha. Jogging for 10 mins would burn way more.
@@cactish3191 I thought so too but many comments like these have got a lot of likes so I thought it may be true

Bruhhh I had to check my replay speed… this is insane, like actually insane, I’ve been learning this song for months, the speed she’s playing it at is ridiculous! This is incredible skill
Wow. She is the best example of very skilled talented pianist. Every touch seems so light and easy. I'm really surprised! And since this piece is one of the hardest piano, her ability is even more amazing.
Everyone : why can't you just be normal?!

It's 3,1k now! When someone else sees this comment it'll probably stay the same. How could you give a dislike to a pianist like that?! Imagine how hard it must be to learn that all together!
@@PiotrBarcz Since I actually did, I can dislike her for a very aberrant style that is not true to Liszt. Yes, it is hard, and it isn't that hard to learn it wrong. I blame her teacher. She has the basic skills. The execution is insulting to Liszt in more than a few places. If you look at the G. Schirmer copy of the sheet music, there are only a few ad-lib notions and they are spaced out quite apart to make it clear. The way she plays it, little of the original would be left. This is the worst revisionism I've heard since I was a child watching the ignorant public licking up the musical schmaltzy/glitzy destruction of classical music by Liberace. All showman and no fidelity to the composers.
@@clasystems everyone has a different style of playing. Its only an opinion. I can agree with you but not that she messed up the song.
@@clasystems Hahahahaha, the irony! You're the same kind of people who hated Listz for making song interpretation/arrangement in the past.
For these people Listz responded :
"To an artist of such talents we must put the claims, being with right enforced on him by the world, at a higher level than that which until now has been reached by him - why is he only moving in properties of others? why does he not give creations of himself, more lasting than those fugitive reminiscences of a prevailing taste are and can be? [...] An artist of that greatness must not pay homage to the prevailing taste of a time, but stand above it!!"

HAHAHAHAHAHHAA
I am convinced by emblems and letters I saw on the piano that it is a Steinway, Had Steinways existed in Liszt's days he would have played them himself,.
I'm not sure if Liszt would be proud or jealous of how well you played that. Incredible!
Very good thought of course, but if you could read music you would know that Liszt would be laughing at this, is off. Still is one of my favorites pieces on the piano and she did extremely well.

Acts of pure talent like this usually look easy to the layman spectator, but this performance leaves no doubt to anyone that there was nothing but years and years of real blood, sweat, tears, dedication and pain needed before reaching the level of perfection shown here.

@@edgarhehehe6800 true
truered lucky yup. Both Franz Liszt (piano) and Niccoló Paganini (violin) were considered the world’s first “superstars” in the modern sense of the word, mainly because of the effect they’ve had on their audiences.
There was a phenomenon called “Lisztomania” where women would attend Liszt’s live concerts and faint and squeal with delight and excitement, and apparently no one at the time really knew why.
+ She's amazingly talented.
+ Best version of this song I've ever heard.

*Piece :^)
yeh cuz jerry is the mouse, dont u get it
she tends to slur a lot of her notes, & i dont get much of feeling when i listen to her. check out hamelin's version, or vladimir horowitz
Ulli Meinhof o I can only agree...what an profoundly and overwhelmingly gifted artist (how fortunate we are to be able to appreciate, in amazement, once such good good musicianship) o
Only Valentina Lisitsa can play this piece with incredible precision, so cleanly and beautifully. Even the super fast part, she nailed them with ease. She’s truly the greatest pianist of today’s generation. Brilliant virtuoso with hands of steel. ♥️
Me parece que la toca demasiado rápido a la canción, no es su culpa esta muy apasionada, es verdad que es una gran pianísta y esta obra la toco muy bien, pero para mi, también esta muy bella la interpretación de Adam Gyorgy.
5:05 pure magic.
Followed by pure joy of playing drifting more and more into the pure insanity.
I wonder how often she went through this until she achieved this level of perfection.
If there is heaven than I'm sure it's going to sound great with all the great musicians we had over the centuries including this lovely hard working lady.

I'm not even kidding when I'm saying that I watch her performance every single day. She is insanely good
I personally think 9:10 is extremely impressive. I've heard a lot of pianists try to play this (including myself) and either make it too slow, or too mushy. Valentina plays it incredibly clear and hastily while still retaining quality and the composers intention for it to be played. She is a remarkable pianist no matter what any critic says.
So true
Who the heck could possibly criticize her?? It's beyond me.
This fucking scared me
Yes I noticed that too. Liszt probably meant this to sound a bit edgy, like maybe the wrong note was hit, and many people just assume that it's the pianist. It is not. It's the art of the piece and requires something special to achieve.
That is part of the Cadenza right?
This piece is a lost song from my childhood. This was the last song my father ever learned on our old piano. I remember being a toddler sitting on his lap watching him. My sister and I dancing like ballerinas in the backround. It blows my mind that as soon as i heard the first 2 notes of this song, i stopped breathing. I couldn’t believe my ears. Instantly began to cry as soon as i realized it was the SONG! I instantly sent it to my sister saying “ I FOUND IT”!
That's a beautiful memory. I'm glad you found it. 😀
That’s so sweet!
ayo you related to idrissa gueye from paris saint germain
Your dad could play this!?
@@matth5734 What a nice memory!!!
The trill at 3.33 where you can hear the sustaining of the lower notes. Love it. Exudes such authority!
As a newbie piano player getting their first meaningful insights into the higher levels of mastery, this is just mindblowing, and kicks my inspiration and motivation into overdrive. I imagine only the very pinnacle of players are even willing to devote the blood, sweat, tears and pure magic that it takes to achieve playing similar to this. Not just the technical difficulty, but the absolute grace, fierce power, keen precision, and depth of soul and emotion - stunning!
I hear you. I started piano just a month ago. I may never get to be able to do this piece, but it's a great inspiration.
Valentina sees a piano:
*Piano* "My time has come..."
Piano: Argh! It's Valentina!
(runs away)
😂
Send shivers down my spine
April Wang that’s what she said
Frans Liszt: "How fast can you play this?"
Valentina Lisitsa: 'Yes."
Honestly, that is incredible. She tells a story in her playing that only she's capable of. Truly remarkable.
They say the piano went out for a cigarette after this performance
Liszt was probably thinking “ No one is actually going to play this it’s April fools”
Valentina:
Liszt: *shoot*
How is this funny?
Why It? It isn’t

That's an understatement, Axel!
I felt that-
if it is a work by liszt, it is to be expected xD
Perfect summary of the bastardization of this song, and violent raping of this piano.
