[jordannet]

he do it better than Tom in Tom & Jerry

[fcavalheiro]

I like how he's having fun with it.

[plutokiss]

Not sure if I like the original cadenza and it feels as though those right hand high notes could be a little more stable. If you choose to play it that fast, you gotta be able to keep them stable and constant (though it seemed to have gotten better the further in). Everything else with, including the length of silence between chords in the beginning, are excellent and that is exactly how I would play them (perhaps with a SLIGHTLY shorter space (but that's just being overly picky, isn't it)).

[rpadilla99ish]

@plutokiss It was pretty awesome.. :)

[835polyglot81]

Paolo Marzocchi is definitely a virtuoso of the piano.Congratulations!

[PYE172]

[WarperBlade]

All this video lacks is a Jerry.

[WarperBlade]

Awesome, just awesome. Did I mention that it was AWESOME?!

[raagpatel26]

excellent work by Liszt

and great performance but starting was a bit awkward and there were too many tempo fluctuations

[marcellomeola]

Thanks, Cesare



[pskrzybor]

impossible is nothing.

[evencool1]

@TheClimbinExperience It sounds like he has, and even looks like he has four.

[Utubeblows]

ughh.. I came.

[shotgun0812]

@TheClimbinExperience But he also has two piano sets.

[DRMISSION2000]

Tom & Jerry uahuahauhauhaahha

[9999necron]

@TheClimbinExperience What do you think he is? Goro from Mortal Kombat?

[RoemerS8]

Aimbot!!

[anin115]

Awesome! Better than Lang Lang!!

[tastineri78]

troppo pedale!

[tshyx]

Where is Jerry?

[goldenballs82]

he is clearly a robot.

[udittlamba]

7:38 o.O

[udittlamba]

gem!

[TaterGumfries]

Now that boy gots an idea of how it ought a go!

[bigcalamaro]

L'ha scritta Lei questa cadenza? Molto "pianistico" un musicista che si scrive da solo la cadenza!!

[MetalFOLKful]

this video is a jewel

[bestdoctorever]

I wonder how long did he take to memorize the whole note ?????

Perfect ,Perfect, Perfect

[WarperBlade]

OMG even better than Tom & Jerry.

[Arzotino]

excellent performance. I'm impressed, wow, really

[easkay]

An epic performance. I now have ambitions to live up to it. THis piece is definitely on my to-do list, even though it'll probably take 9 months.

[DzekiDzzzz]

WoW very good performance! I know 11 pages out of 18 from this piece, and I play them with a very fast on my keyboard, I wish I had a piano :P, I LOVE THIS piece, RIP Liszt

[Timothezzy]

WOW

[dmackler58]

you go, guy!! you are brilliant!

[TheEdwardBishop]

I must say, he is almost as good as Bugs Bunny.

[NazgulMoonblade]

When I see this guy I think of Tom, but when I see Adam Gyorgy I think of Jerry >_>

[orielsy]

U can tell he is into it when he almost hops off the chair for a note. :-)

[isaacchoc]

one of the best performance1 i liked it very much... superb!

[SuperLiutprando]

Tecnica molto particolare!

[SideshowRob05]

Where's the mouse trap? :(

[sadie4me2]

AMAZING! AMAZING! AMAZING! .....all I can say

[lester0091]

Bugs Bunny plays it better lol

[MrSebas56]

@lester0091

and he have 8 fingers :)

[burana60]

Amazing performance!

[ElmaFudd2]

Brings goosebumps and almost tears to hear this!

[lepaintre123]

Une belle performance 2010

[WarperBlade]

I can never hope of doing it as good as him. Because i saw this, my piano hopes are doomed.

[alexandros789]

@WarperBlade never say never :-D

[Linvoilac]

@WarperBlade if you begin thinking that way, indeed your hopes are doomed.

It has to be a motivation for you. I'm sure Paolo Marzocchi would be disapointed if he learnt his amaising skills doomed someone's hopes.

by the way, Liszt's are some of the most difficult ones ever created.

I personally play piano for only 4 years, I know I won't even be able to play it in 10-15 years, but never give up music. keep hope and play other pieces. train your technique, and years later... play!

[WarperBlade]

@Linvoilac I don't play piano, I play clarinet, but I want to play piano.

[Shanelololol]

@WarperBlade nono dont say that lol. just practice.

[pournaras21]

@WarperBlade No, you just got inspiration and motivation. Think positive :-)

[WarperBlade]

Better than Tom..... wow!

[merceknight]

The only word that comes to mind is brilliant. He is not only feeling the music but so obviously enjoying playing it as well, a small detail that is missing in so many performers who simply play it because it is a job. That emotion carries over in the watching of this video.

I also enjoyed his twist at the end. Not to mention he starts out with that slight hold on the notes at the beginning which in my opinion either makes or breaks the piece. Some may like the short cut off version but not me.

[TrabalRipoll]

Spectacular pianist!

[kavudx]

Tom played this piece way better

[MP60]

What blows me away is mankind's absolute brilliance to be able to compose music such as this and to create an instrument to convey this music.

[zeus0190]

I hear the music, and remember Tom & Jerry

[DeadlyDeadlyBeees]

10:58 cracks me up. He finishes so triumphantly :p

[fueltotheflame]

So I'm not a trained musician at all. Don't piano players usually have sheet music they look at? I'm not seeing it so he is doing this all by memory? Sweet lord...

[Sandrian4Jesus]

Wow. I'm speachless... as my husband and I watch...

[99youngster]

you have to feel this type of music.....its whats called a masterpiece.........frank liszt....musial genius.

[Shanelololol]

@99youngster franz liszt not frank liszt lol

[ca8shoni13]

CRAZY.

[Drudkkh]

Everytime I hear this .... buckets are overflowing!

[Halopedian]

I'm view 50000. And my is my mind blown, goosebumps everywhere.

[ctbozzzz]

I just had an eargasm!!



[tteu123]

Look at that... at 8:40 his fingers are floating on top of the notes.. gracious, beautiful..

[nekolux]

I recognized where the cadenza came in but I do not understand what you mean by "original" liszt left it up for individual pianists to improvise did he not? Did he actually write an original cadenza?

[nobull89]

@nekolux He means that he (Paolo Marzocchi) composed the cadenza played here. So it's an original cadenza, not something Liszt wrote

[nekolux]

@nobull89 AHHH of course, god what a brain fart moment haha. I was so confused because this cadenza might be the best I've heard and yet I have never heard any other pianists play it.

[smalltownguy22]

Bugs Bunny led me here = : )

[EduOrta142536]

it seems very easy D:! damn he deserbs a wikipedia biography :3

[akumanation]

fantasitic omg this is one of the best in youtube

[bella0black]

Who the hell dislikes Liszt?!

[deathwillfuckuup]

By far, the most awesome interpretation I've seen in Youtube of this beautiful piece.

In my opinion, much better than Lang Lang's or Valentina's.

This guy really feels the music, he plays it wonderfully, filled with joy.

[Nobbi111]

@deathwillfuckuup I agree with you in one point: Better than Lang Lang, but not so good as Valentina´s. Valentina is awesome ;-))

[deathwillfuckuup]

@Nobbi111 Well, it's a matter of opinion.

I prefer this interpretation, however, I do not deny Valentina is quite good as well.

[supersonikan]

O_O

[blessedhomosapiens]

06:30 - 06:35 Jerry was dancing around on the piano keys

06:35 - 06:40 Tom was trying to catch Jerry, and ended up playing the piano with his toes lol

[blessedhomosapiens]

03:50 Jerry got knocked on the head and passed out... =p

[narcis420]

this guy discourages me I start to play the piano..:((......

[2000Jeffster]

THIS IS AMAZING I PLAY THIS SONG AND MINE DOES NOT SOUND ANYTHING LIKE IT THIS GUY MAKES IT LOOK SO EASY DAM

[stanafan21]

omg me to victoriatoma i can just see jerry interrupting tom like crazy

[markdaviesYT]

Marx Brothers anyone?

Incredible!!!!!

[GropytownRulez]

more than 5* !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sgvpotter]

that was amazing!!! i started clapping after then remembered i wasn't there... WOW... this was mindblowing... thank you to whom ever posted it!!!

[PEFANIS1]

what is cadenza

[alspageddi]

@PEFANIS1 A part of the piece, usually towards the end, where the soloist plays a virtuosic and highly ornamented, often improvised, section.

[Spondonicles]

This is amazing... you can tell that he truly loves the piece

[n1ckaaaa888]

Unfair. He's got four hands.

[ksrugis]

where can I get this sheet music? All I see is simplified stuff online...

[MucusFelidae]

@ksrugis where can I get this sheet music?

Yeah, and where can I get the tabs for this piece?

[Lola4392]

No se...es una interesante version, prolija, certera...pero la encuentro fria...muuuy fria al lado de la version de David Helfgott...Helfgott toca con el alma!

[760mjh]

where did he learn how to come up with such a great cadenza?

[weggieish]

@760mjh He got it out of his credenza

[emedemendoza]

la cagó



[gyaramaga]

Fantastic!! Super!!!

[Draxis32]

If you seek other videos on youtube about Hungarian Raphsody No. 2, you WON'T find anyone with this level of mastery over the piano.

Often people that are supposed to play "their way", its the people that cannot perform the song and therefore miss notes and add speed to try to balance their lack of skill and call it "its the way I play this song".

Oh please, Liszt is not for some fast fingers, its for the ones who truly mastered the piano.

[WolfieTed]

@Draxis32 I spent years learning the notes of this song, that was all fast fingers. Mastering the song has still eluded me after YEARS of effort, to make the notes transform into a piece of excellence eludes me! Anyone can learn the NOTES pf this song. Providing the articulation in the notes that moves us is the genius in playing this beautiful instrument and piece. He made an excellent effort and found a magnificent balance. I sit here green faced and frustrated by my inadequacies!

[Draxis32]

@WolfieTed Don't get yourself down for this, Franz Liszt was able to play the most diffucult pieces at age 12, so he wrote the most difficult plays on the Piano of all time (from what I've read and researched) therefore, there must be a maximum of 20 people in the world that can play all Liszt works...and Hungarian Rhapsody is far from being its most virtuous work. Regardless of virtuosity, Mr Paolo here conserved well the Music Aesthetic of this piece and that inspires me.

[MetalFOLKful]

@Draxis32 exactly, that's right

[umbertobisceglia]

eccezionale interpretazione, scioltezza e padronanza assoluta del pezzo

[HawlerBOSS]

very good

interesting more than Tom and Jerry

[barsonyka01]

these times, i am proud of being hungarian :)

[arcosecante]

05:10 remember me something but i can't figure it out what. i heard that part in somewhere

[leonardofavotto]

totally perfect, awesome. . . applause

[pianopropgm]

Good performence, verry well interpretation :)

[cavavel]

Bueno, la cancion es sumamente buena y el interprete.... pues no desmerece, digo un 90 de calificacion no es injusta, salvo tu mejor opinion.

[Estunline]

CAPOO CAPO CAPOOOOOOO!!!!

[renanrr95]
