Horowitz plays Liszt-Horowitz: Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2

i think it is not much harder then the transcendental etudes...
but i love it when horowitz is playing liszt...
i can listen to it for hours and he makes me feel like i am in a different world!!! AMAZING!

how difficult is this piece? how does it compare to the transcendental etudes?

it's quite a difficult piece, requiring massive stamina and beastly wrists xD. But the Transcendental Etudes are harder according to most people

Horowitz is legendary

Thats for you =P , I think vice versa . But you do make sense there.

Hah, I actually think it's what Liszt would have enjoyed. He was, after all, the biggest show-off of them all.

is horowitz still alive?

no, he died in 1989, i think

He's been dead for like 20 years.

Alfre..........cheer up. Yes, Horowitz himself will appear, as we humans all do. You see, after death, we return to the human race again and again and again.
 And for sure, whoever Horowitz is with his new life, you can be sure he's not driving a truck or plowing the fields, but sitting at another Steinway creating his magic anew. Look around and you might be able to recognize other great performers--------Litsz, Pablo Casals, Leonid Kogan, Paganini, Ted Williams.....et. al.
