Billentyu007, thanks for uploading this. Do you have the complete video? A hug!

[TheHideg8]

He's so modest.Annyira szereny,pedig o aztan tud.

[VikingNightmare]

@TheHideg8 Valo igaz... :)

[BalletBabyBoy]

I think the tempo is too slow! Yeah right!

[musicadelector]

Le peu que l'on voit de cette vidéo nous met l'eau à la bouche. Ne pourrait-on avoir la Fantaisie Hongroise par Cziffra et Cziffra junior dans son intégralité ? Elle doit bien exister quelque part... En tout cas, ce trop bref extrait est une pure merveille !

[philorgue]

The Ladies is Isabelle Cziffra, Fille de Georgy Junior, Petite Fille du génial pianiste...

par Elle nous l'esperons perdurera l'héritage du grand Homme.

[PrinceCharlesX]

Cziffra... What to add ...

This video shows his son with him; I discovered that.

Glissandi are unbelievable.

[felix0911176727]

Please! I want the complete version of Cziffra's performence, please!!! Who can let my dream come true??

[madlovba2]

I can. I've uploaded the COMPLETE performance of it (and Liszt's 2 piano concerti and the Totentanz, with the 2 Cziffras) few days ago. It's audio only (HQ), but it's still fascinating.

[felix0911176727]

Haha, I mean "films". I have all the recordings you mentioned, but thanks anyway!

[ClassicMusicOnly]

Cziffra , A Hungarian Legend that cannot be replaced! No one will ever replace Cziffra!

[piano345]

Along with Liszt's first piano concerto the Hungarian Fantasy was Cziffra's calling card in the late 1950's and 1960s. This film must be from the 1970s. Wonderful to see father and son together but also very sad as Cziffra Jr. died in a house fire in 1981.

[tommy9882]

2:01 cziffra jr. saw his father and smiled

and I found cziffra is playing very well when his son is at present

[girgiii]

That's not the 14th Rhapsody. It's the Hungarian Fantasy for piano and orchestra

[gislim]

The Hungarian Fantasy is a transcription of the 14th Rhapsody

[maxdesp]

Cziffra's glissandos. Priceless.

[Pianda]

WHEN did Cziffra play this? Please write the data into the legend!

[oyealove]

Man that was crazy. Amazing.

[nedolem]

Ő aztán kegyetlenül tud!

[lyghdha]

Could this film come from the INA archives? This should be something for a dvd! My God!

[Czifframusical]

Cziffra musical!!

Go to my video!!

Composers:Janos Balazs,Jr.Janos balazs,Norbert Balazs

[LadyofMetal16]

What is he saying at the end?

[georgecziffra]

This is Liszt's Hungarian Fantasy, not the orchestration of the 14th Hungarian Rhapsody. This rhapsody did however serve as a basis for this section of the piece. There is also a hint of the 2nd Hungarian Rhapsody earlier in the piece.

[georgecziffra]

There is a (audio only) video of Cziffra playing the entire Hungarian Fantasy elsewhere on Youtube, in 2 parts.

Use this link to see the first part: watch?v=4dVhA1DIYdQ&feature=re­lated

[gerardbedecarter]

Conrad Ansorge (1862-1930) was a pupil of Liszt in 1885. Ansorge made piano rolls of 9Liszt works. One was Triphonola roll no. T 53799 of solo version of this piece. It was played back on a Hupfeld Roenisch "Anamatic" Phono-Liszt upright piano. I have put a recording of this onto CD which is one of a 3 CD set enclosed with the book "Rediscovering the Liszt Tradition" by Gerard Carter & published & sold by Wensleydale Press 165/137 Victoria Street, Ashfield NSW 2131 Sydney NSW Australia.

[MIFFLISH]

Tell the ladies to shut up! Geeze, I wanna hear Cziffra play.:p

[VikingNightmare]

@MIFFLISH The ladies tell a story about Cziffra so they have the right to speak

[MIFFLISH]

@MIFFLISH they can speak after he finishes playing. dont they have any manners?

[Miornum]

@MIFFLISH  Frak you

[Bozder]

At the end he sais he's "just a simple artist". A végén nagyon szerény.

[GeorgeOfZala]

For the great artist as he was, he spoke with the utmost modesty and gentleness. His son was a genius as well, too bad, they both passed away... I wish I could bring them back!

[OorvakanSar]

He's speaking Hungarian at the end, right? It kind of sounds like Turkish.

[jeff7069]

Hey birdshit...you need to learn how to read English first so you don't keep making a fool of yourself. You define incredible ignorance.

[TheHideg8]

@OorvakanSar No it does not.Sorry.It sounds like hungarian.cos it is hungarian.

[OorvakanSar]

His son looks as insane as him.

[timuth]

What !?! Yes !!! it is the son of Cziffra

[konzolmester]

Túl Gyors ez a Magyar Rapszódia!

[alcyone77777]

two words: piano monster

[piano345]

The Liszt Hungarian Fantasy and first piano concerto were Cziffra's calling cards in the late 1950s. His debut at London's Royal Festival Hall with these works caused a furore. Cziffra's improvisatory style suits these pieces ideally.

[RumunskiePorzekadlo]

Two words: Octave glissandos!

[aldebussy]

OMG. Did you see those octave glissandos?

[donjuan9012]

holy octave glissandos, Batman!

[7milord7]

chi è sta zoccola?

[cypkat60]

That is Cziffra's granddaughter, NOT his daughter and the Hungarian Fantasy is from Hungary circa 1973. His return after fleeing in 1956

[mamutka531921]

you are such a douche

[SergeiReiter]

he has a beautiful daughter!!! wow

[werner99]

my fav pianist

[masorocl]

no when the orchestre play il's hungarian fantasy, but with e them of the rapsodie for paino solo work n°14.

but this is the hungarian fantasy, I've got cd of this^^

[simmo303]

Hungarian Fantasy, surely?

[Omega1987]

Nah, it's a rhapsody for sure.

[simmo303]

Ah, yes, true; but it was the basis for the Fantasy - a sadly neglected work, great fun.

[Hatsumomo89]

It's the Fantasy he's playing in this video, 100%.

[simmo303]

Hah! I was right in my first comment. Rhapsody no. 14 was the basis.

[ivrykeys]

WOW! Amazing =)

When was this recorded?

[Rani9000]

thank you so much for posting this.

[Tacitus87]
