  • @oregamienainokasugu That is wise :). On top of his "normal" great technical prowess, Cziffra here also shows deeply subtle musicality; almost the whole piece he "holds back", even during the fortissimos. Very special.

  • @mombeekmarcel Knew him personally?? Are you kidding??

  • Love Cziffra's playing as always!

  • compared to Horowitz there is the same quality of sound and intention of interpretation although there are big differences in execution. Cziffra was as exciting as Horowitz and will stay a milestone in the history of pianomusic.

  • If you are trying to say that this pianist is some kind of a unique phenomenon, sort of instantly recognizable from his sonic signature, yes, you got it.

  • I really feel like I'm hearing Liszt right now =)

  • Well its great to play alot of pieces but HOW you play them is important.

  • Thats like saying Horowitz was better than Rachmaninov :)

  • hi there, if you know cziffra's art good, you will know that is could be only cziffra. I knew cziffra personally, and his "touch" was not different in the 80 years as in the 50°
