      Yes, he has once again single-handedly incorporated an entire symphony into one piano solo :)
      Seriously, Liszt was a genius, one of the most epic composers to every exist.

    I wish the arrangement emphasized the dominant 7th in the bass more building up to the last melodic resolve. If you understand what I'm referring to, it creates the best tension and resolution.

    This is definitely not the Liszt transcription. I am currently practicing the version and therefore know it inside out. Please look it up on IMSLP. This version is probably a transcription by E. Pauer. It's pretty pathetic to reinterpret the name of the arranger just to get more attention. Simply a form of bad click baiting.

      Well, clearly you are not the expert you think you are, because this most certainly IS the Liszt transcription. The first link below is a pdf of the entire Liszt transcription. The part that is being played in the video above starts on page 52, bar 9. The second link is another performance of the Liszt transcription that is EXACTLY the same as the video above (part above starts at 3:52 in that video). Maybe you need more practice?!
