@Cleroth I wish that too, it's such a shame. I think it's quite amazing that Liszt lived long enough to have his photograph taken though!

he can do it without pedal

@dotcom97 Unfortunately Liszt didn't :( I certainly would've preferred to listen to Liszt than Cziffra :D

Cziffra - the supreme interpreter of Liszt!

@leugimsierra this recording is clearer than the one berezovsky does. cziffra had better technic than "the only berezovsky"...there is no old or new. berzovsky is surely good...but "today onyl "sounds very much populismus to me. ask berezovsky about what he thinks of cziffra...i bet he also admires him, as we all do.

@slappersplatter The 2-4 fingering isn't that bad if both hands are used to play fast octaves. But the same effect can be done with more normal fingering, as long you use the same technique, but then there is no reason not to use the 2-4 fingering =)

wtf no pedal??

@gnstjd518 Is it a song ?! oO

Thank God he lived in a technological era. It would be a disgrace not having his recordings.

This has got to be the exceptional version! Well layered, dynamics are beautiful and tasteful, his improvisation is subtle yet completely within the style of the piece, he does not forget to properly phrase the bass line like most others do, and his incredible personality resounds throughout the entire piece! He is a true virtuoso! I would have loved to see him live in concert!
