Richter plays Liszt Vallée d'Obermann part 2

Have been waiting for someone else to upload this performance for a long time now. Finally, I decided to do it myself, spending some hours to learn how to upload musical files on youtube. Hope people will find it and enjoy, Hereby the original French text.

J'existe pour me consumer en désirs indomptables, pour m'abreuver de la séduction dune monde fantastique, pour rester attérré de sa voluptueuse erreur.

does he make a mistake on 2.29 or is it just an other version?

Thanks for mentioning this point, I certainly didn't notice it before:-) Well, it's not the same thing written on my score neither, but harmonicall what he played had no problem at all.

c est grandios mais il me manque l espressivo de Horowitz ici. Ricter est moins dramatique face a la tragique de cette piece. Horowitz comprenait mieux l intention de Liszt . C est l ouevre le plus dramatique et profonde de Liszt.

BRAVO!!

@madeliefffje Funny I wasn't reading the comments, but I just noticed it and was about to type the same question. I also have an older manuscript of the piece but it doesn't mention it either. I think it was a small mistake in the performance.

Horowitz's '66 Columbia live recording blows this performance out of the water.

@madeliefffje even the greater minds make mistakes... :) they're human after all.

@uhartchristian Oui je suis d accord avec vous. J adore Richter mais Horowitz comme vous le dites si bien interprete cette oeuvre avec une expressivite incroyable

. Dans le Crescendo final, Horowitz fait sonner les basses d une maniere unique et avec une palette de couleurs merveilleuses. Il raconte une histoire, un drame.

Richter le joue tres bien mais il n a pas cette magie (meme si dans dans d autres registres il est unique bien sur).

Thank you very much for this video!

There is no magical things with pedals...

He hears the "Liquidity" of the harmonies and he makes it to sound.

It is a matter of hearing in the first place.

@Sagitta1986 : exactly: it does not matter. This is a great live recording, with a good interpretation of an absolutly superb peace of music!

Wow, you actually thought this was better than Horowitz's recording?
