@1Thompsonmusic "This Pianist" was one of the greatest of the 20th century.

I am impressed by the pianist, not so much the composer.
-
By the way Brendel is great, his technique is perfect for him.
-
Brendel looks tired at the beginning. :)
-
This is NOT Liszt. And this pianist has a very weak technique.
-
Great Perfomance! :)

What a wonderful interpretation.

Le interpretazioni di Brendel con Liszt hanno sempre stimolato tempeste di polemiche ! E' un modo di eseguire in cui predomina un linguaggio romantico che ha molto di Schumann e Schubert e Mendelssohn, e non tiene conto che Liszt ha anticipato molte aperture nuove, nelle tematiche, nelle tecniche del pianismo nei successivi Prokofieff, Bartok, Stravinskij, Shostakovitch, e molto del secondo periodo di Scriabin. E in fondo, certi manierismi con Liszt possono risultare fuori luogo !!!

Brendel might have checked a little his ridiculous mannerisms!
Musically better, yet mannered too, in Brendel's typically exaggerated way. It may be sincere. All the same, I find the listening unpleasant business.
Wow, it's amazing to witness the boldness of some people: To claim that someone like Brendel has a "pretty bad" technique clearly needs some guts!

I like other interpretation more, for Liszt he is most definately not my favorite, but Brendel is always interesting, he is a great musician and pianist with great musical insights and flawless technique.
I love his Beethoven, Mozart and Schubert
