I feel as if I were a child who have known until now only fruit juice in soft drink bottle picks real fruit from trees in a farm for the first time. Cortot gives me the true musical fruit which is full of natural juice.
Cortot gives sometimes notes that are not contained in Liszt's score. But the disharmonious notes as well as his ad libitum part please me more than the correct note other pianists give.
melody lyricism lightness poetry never demonstrative never charismatic always music above self centeredness here are the qualities of Alfred Cortot in Rapsody 2 of F Lizst , alone in Discography of all historical pianists .
' Just gotta LOVE that Starburst cadenza featuring more than just a hint of the gay carnivalesque! This guy was a genius and musical pride of Switzerland and France! (Here setting aside, of course, the Vichy "Minister of Culture and Arts" thing.)

Indeed! The 'starburst' I'd characterize it, as near it's end it explodes into a bedazzlement of color. Going way-back to his first Victor acoustic of this work, he was featuring this, which through the various recordings of it, was constantly be refined. It is equally interesting and fun as Rachmaninoff's is on his Edison cut.

I remember his words that you must first dream the music before you can play it. So true.
Agree
He was 75 years old here o.0 Damn.. This really proves that the human mind doesn't stop growing at old age.

Magnifique interprétation de la rhapsodie No 2 de Franz LISZT. Chapeaux bas Messieurs ! Alfred CORTOT, c'était un très Grand Pianiste !
Thanks for sharing! This is an awesome performance for such advanced age.

@@crescenzoverdenavi, you don't understand??
J agree, music only music without personnal piano effects to make his audience love him .
I love how he messes up the first note and still delivers a really impressive rendition
Does he mess it up?
@@leot7 yes

Exactly .
True.
Today human robots i nstead of artists play this music
Cortot el experto en música en el 🌍 mundo. ,,,,,,,🇮🇷 Península de Yucatán Mejico
He commands the instrument to such degree that even a mistake he turns to poetry. He is the MASTER.
A poet rather then a show off, unfortunately people now a days don’t have the patience for this. They want theatrics and facial expressions
CORTOT IS GENIUS
Right. Like me
Apart from everything else, the dry accoustics makes you hear a actual real piano, made from wood and steel!
Thanks for uploading!
Es un milagro ,tanto que leí en biografía y en mis partituras de las lecturas de mi estudio de piano. ❤.
Wow amazing interpretation.
Alfred Cortot, le amo el peso de la mano...

私は歌い手、ピアノは、新海昭二に師事した。新海は、第二次大戦後、NHKのクラシック番組で毎日のようにショパン、ドビュッシーを弾いた人である。そして
コルトーが、戦後再来日した時、帰国の船の中で引くべくピアノを捜していた時、或るピアニスト（新海昭二）がドビュッシーを弾いているのを、じっと聴いていた。そして、コルトーが話しかけたのだ。「君を、DECCAに紹介するから、フランスに来たまえ」。しかし不幸が新海を襲った。コルトーの帰国後、猛烈な＜狭心症＞に罹って、渡欧を諦めざるを得なかったのだ。コルトーと新海昭二の出会いは、私の心のなかの大きな思い出となり、コルトーのSP, LPを集め、聴いて過ごした。コルトーは、本質的にシューマン弾きである。このリストの「ハンガリー・ラプソディ」は、彼の強烈な指を証明している。そして私はシューマンを歌った。新海昭二に師事した神野明のピアノで歌った「詩人の恋」の録音が出て来た。神野君も逝っちゃったが、彼が弾いたこの曲を忘れることはない。

Is this Cortot's own cadenza?
Yes
Indeed!
