Who is playing the Tausig´s composition here?

[MrOliverKjaerulff]

1:35 WTF that run in parallell sixth's!! how the &%@# are you supposed to play that!?

[addeex1]

@MrOliverKjaerulff Good fingerings? 

[MrOliverKjaerulff]

@addeex1 I guess so... I've never seen anything like it, not even Liszt would do something like that

[addeex1]

@MrOliverKjaerulff Hmm are you sure? ;) Well that run shouldn't be played super fast actually, so I think it could be manageable especially if you have big hands. Ponti plays the "fake-line" here ("haha"), so it can sound impossible but I think it isn't.

@MrOliverKjaerulff @addeex Chopin does the same thing in the right hand at the end of Op. 25/8, so the left hand sixths aren't out of the question. As a pianist, though, I'd go with the ossia in this piece. =D

[kasyapa]

i repeat: now we know where cziffra got his sound from: tausig's figurations! cziffra wasn't a lisztian - he was a tausigian.

[titusbeertsen]

In one word: testosteron.

Thanks for uploading. I'd not heard of this piece or the composer.

[cedricrlongreen]

It's like an extremely difficult Etude rapped into a large work...if that made any sense lol

[pinkbeenkody]

Despite having the part after the e minor (where it is C Major) remind me of drunken colonial people, I had this weird dream about living in the best world you coyld imagine after going to bed.

Really, I'm positive that Carl Tausig will win the nobel peace prize if he presented this powerful majestic piece! No kidding

[pinkbeenkody]

@pinkbeenkody sorry of mispelling "could" to "coyld". heh-heh

[Jackarooned]

This looks kinda tricky...

[maxsnafu]

@Jackarooned

Keen grasp of the obvious.

[Jackarooned]

@maxsnafu That was the slant I was going for, but thanks for making that clear to everyone.

[felix0911176727]

Just like Cziffra's works... Hard as Hell !

[checkmatesolidier]

incredible. sounds like this is where cziffra got his style from! bravo ponti, too.

[danedaworld]

the ending was cut off?

[marcxopoco]

Congratulations to Ponti.

[jasonextreme]

My God, this is so beautiful. I can see why Liszt would be proud.

[BofferBings]

Amazing! Thanks for this!

[radioplug14]

First time I heard this piece. Wonderful performance by this pianist. Really brings out the characteristic written into the piece!

[MagicDonDino]

Trascendental and power! A immense Fantasy!

[Ho0chie]

played like a metronome was strapped to his head, as it really should be for this piece :)
