well people you just have to try to connect the passages and then if you would be able to connect them you wont say that the song are series of passages his music is always connected he is my favorite piano composer that's all i wanted to say
I'm inclined to agree with s4ud4de, many of Liszt's greatest works seem like a series of intentionally difficult passages. He is my favorite piano composer by far, but pieces such as this Totentanz sound like he was writing them as an entrance examination for his piano academy.
I sometimes feels Liszt music is a non-sense group of difficult passages. Not all pieces, but this "Totetanz" is one, and much of this etudes, in contrary of Chopin etudes, who are a true imagination jewels. Chords, octaves, etc, without apparent relation between. The unique worth of this piece is the technical difficultie, none more. Is only a personal opinion.
What do u mean? this piece represents the true imagination of liszts mind, it's about the day of dead if you couldn't tell, besides if you were a super virtuoso with the greatest technique wouldn't you write such difficult passages in your work?
yeah the russians are great, but totentanz means the dance of death, and all the great russian pianists are dead, so i can see why you made that statement jackewiebohne.
Only hungarian people can play good music from a hungarian composer - if you mean what you say than it's bullshit. the best interpretations of liszt have been by russian players so far, but i won't bet a dollar that there can't be a good interpretation of liszt by other pianists. by the way: hungary was not even an independent country when liszt lived.
Great job!

15,000 views in about 5 years... That's not bad for music that isn't autotuned Charlie Sheen quotes.

I agree with you Jackewiebohne. Hungary was named as Austria-Hungary where Liszt lived.
