Cziffra plays Gnomenreigen

An old recording of Gnomenreigen. It's played quite fast, and with a lot of pedal - but Cziffra controls the piece very good!

Lol, I'm never going to watch Cziffra the same way again!

Secondo me, si divertiva anche a giocare al funambolo sulle difficoltà più intricate, ma lo faceva trasformando i fraseggi e le melodie in lirismo, luminoso e scintillante, ricco di vitalità traboccante di "gioia di far musica". Forse voleva trasmettere anche il senso di libertà che provava, specialmente dopo i lavori forzati che aveva subito durante la prigionia in guerra. Il suo stile esecutivo così gioioso e virtuosistico era un continuo inno alla libertà riacquistata !!!

Practice long enough to master the more difficult concepts, for most this is in the 20-30 year range. Attain a higher level of grasp, a greater understanding of what music really is. Cziffra is, quite frankly, one of the most accomplished musicians. I would compare him to Pearlman, Charlie Byrd Parker, Oscar Peterson and the late, great, Buddy Rich. There are few in my book. Demonstrable mastery of the instrument, absolute perfect technical playing willingness to bend with complete control.

Everything he does is magic. His skill is so highly evolved - there are simply no comparisons.

@G1GAR0 Not to mention the fact that he plays both hands perfectly in sync...
