Liszt Hungarian Rhapsody # 12 live from Palermo Sicily. Valentina Lisitsa

This is just a little dessert encore after the main dish - Mozart Piano Concerto #27 K595 .(I had to do it to honor the presenter's request - I don't usually play this piece for encore, plus I had to do La Campanella and Chopin Nocturne E Flat )
I am hoping to get a permission from the maestro and the orchestra to post at list a bit of the concerto perfromance ...The venue is outdoors : Chiostro del Complesso Monumentale S. Anna (Galleria d'Arte Moderna ) The concert was the opening of Palermo Classica Festival ( google it - one word palermoclassica dot it ). They are doing ALL !!!!! Mozart's piano concerti . If you are in Plaermo before the end of October , do come :)
Huge thanks to Davide Caracappa and his dad for making this video - and sound too :)

valentine when you upload scherzo,ballade and the other videos of Chopin and Liszt that you promised us? waiting impatiently for months =)

[ValentinaLisitsa]

@Minanto91 I will try to catch up as soon as I can . Yesterday was my first free day ( no piano around ) like in ages. I had quite an "eventful" summer , having to fire my agent ( not fun ) , looking for a new one ( Hoorray , i have the best one ::-)) , dealing with my mom's health etc.....

I am heading to Hannover for another recording session in September . Liszt :-)

[ACE29q]

@ValentinaLisitsa Hi Val, In September are you going to broadcast the session? It would be wonderful!!

[ValentinaLisitsa]

@ACE29q There were a lot of technical problems with fast internet connection last time around - and sound was really bad. It was very annoying to try to fix it rather than concentrate on the performance . I think this time I will just tape the whole thing. We are doing vinyl LP this time :-) A real thing , like in good old times , with tape - no gimmicks.

[ValentinaLisitsa]

@SPYKEjj If you are into lots of Bach , next time I will tell you how to study Bach to play like Glenn Gould

(almost - hehe), there is a very useful way to practice Bach keyboard pieces that does miracles. It has to do with counting ....

[ValentinaLisitsa]

@QcMori7 If I am invited again :-) And next time I will ahve to do 4 hours long recital , to beat 3 hours long recital I did this summer. it is getting dangerous :-)

Val, it's not in my nature to comment on youtube, but I have to say you look really stunning !

[juliejuulie]

It seems that time is stopped. Everyone lets the music live.

[madeddi]

@crepaccio I would feel the same. :(

[MrQuinnapalooza]

I love you.

[zachattack19942]

@icelopak Yeah, I sure hope so. Valentina what kind of pianos do you have at your house? 

[icelopak]

Hey, Valentina, are you and family going to be ok with respect to the hurricane? The pianos, too?

[clsyckpnst]

put simply... you are amazing!!! :] watching you makes me want to practice le piano!

[heratus007]

It's almost like Liszt composed this with you in mind

[EvansChronicles]

Hi Valentina - Once again astonishing playing - I am intrigued by your tip for improving Bach can you elaborate....

[PhilosophyClassics]
