  • goosebumps...

  • @BGDPPL That yabbdabbadoo phrase does stick in the mind.

  • @REIDZER09 I.Y.H.O.

  • very good but Cziffra has a weird 4th finger than regularly goes above the 5th! Cziffras still safe as the best pianist ever.

  • I went to primary school with him.  Fair to say he is a bit more successful than me.

  • Blair Ellis Robertson is a better pianist 

  • Has any one got sheet music for this?

  • This is of course the Brahms Hungarian Dance 5 in the virtuoso transcription by Cziffra. He brought a fine lyrical touch to the Liszt second concerto and didn't seem overawed by the big occasion. Maybe with more experience and confidence he will bring more diablerie and abandon to these works. A remarkable pianist.
