Tritsch Tratsch Polka Strauss-Cziffra Scherbakov

[guitarfish97]

Too slowly...

[micheldvorsky]

Scherbakov is an amazing pianist.

[demosj]

It's really violent at 3:28 for some reason. Cziffra downplays the final two notes to make the change from major to minor less noticeable, which I think is right. There's no modulating bridge and the ending sounds really off.

[hjiuhfhrehui]

whahaha :P awsome.. at the end booooooommm!! and thann.. realy soft.. tu dumm :P the last 2 notes :P..

outstanding preformance :)

[kastlesucks]

Cziffra would have been proud.

[ilnvita]

the only kind of stuff he can play, fast and furious.. BUT he does it in an astonishing manner

[BenMcCormack91]

You know... my god, this is the only recording of a Cziffra transcription I've actually enjoyed. Scherbakov needs to be more famous than he is. Much more famous.

[libetta]

@BenMcCormack91

you should enjoy his strauss cd then

[BenMcCormack91]

@libetta I'm not too big a fan of the transcriptions on the CD, but I do like his playing. Personally, the reason I got into him was his recording of the Liszt-Beethoven symphonies.

[Katamanteuomos]

Sauf Scherbakov est un genial interpretateur de Schostakovitch au piano. Je pense qu'il a un monopole pour lui.

[BenMcCormack91]

Oui, et je crois que ses interprétations de Liszt sont impressionnantes, aussi.

Évidemment, ses mains sont énormes...

[coqdorysme]

this is unbelievable.

you know, it sounds more "correct" than the notes given in the cziffra edition sheets.

[Rohit0406]

the sheets of cziffra's work are all wrong.

[kage1369]

cziffra became famous because of his bruteforce technic and interpretation. we don't expect any quality standards ;)

yess, pls thumbs down for me telling the truth

[dingdongfiel]

Wow!I Just watched a concert of him tonight and it was one of the best concerts i've ever been in my whole life!

[CZARDASMACABRE]

j'aime beaucoup les transcriptions LISZT BEETHOVEN jouées par scherbakov!! ca fait plaisir d'écouter son joli toucher

[larkinthesky]

I met him once. I had to play in front of him for the entrance exam for the musical college in Zurich. You can imagine how frightened I was.

[jungwirthmartin]

he is great, listen to his Rachmaninova

[chrislark28]

Konstantin Scherbakov is a great pianist, virtuosic and expressive in the true romantic piano tradition. Check out his performance of Liszt's Consolation S 172 - which is exquisite - and Rhapsodie espagnole, S.254 - truly amazing. It's on the Naxos 20th Anniversary Concert DVD.
