  • Nyiregyhazy played almost everything after inner hearing. This is how he heard Scriabin from the inside. Written notes were absolutely not imprtant for him...

    Nyiregyházy has a soul very close to Liszt. regarding this piece, I hear a mixture of Liszt and Scriabin.

    Have a nice day...

  • fair enough. subjectivity is the beauty of art. what i don't see, somebody else does. i think we can both agree that it's a wonderful piece of music though.

  • what the hell is this 5:15.....

    .... ugh

  • one simply cannot deny the utter beauty of the playing up to 3:30

  • What an original, so glad he was "rediscovered" before he died in obscurity. He harkens back to the old Romantic pianists of old.

  • la maitrise du rythme, la maitrise du son, la maitrise des phrases, creation d'athmosphere, mais respect du text et intentions of the composer is not there.

    Genial en improvisation..... un grand artiste

  • ..paradox...to the Scriabin-hater in me this actually sounds pretty good; the attacks and phrasings are entirely unScriabinian...the mysticism and the sensuousness that I hate so much are gone...and this ends up sounding so dry and 20th century, that it is really neat...makes me think of...Ravel(?) as in La Valse...and even Ives, as per the Concord sonata...crazy man crazy...

  • this isn't scriabin's sonata so it shouldn't be called that, it should simply be: nyiregyhazi-scriabin drunk n' roaming, or something like that i dunno. it's not fair to the pianist himself when we take something he played just for fun as his actual intention to play a well-known piece of work like this sonata

  • @mahlerten1

    you don't understand anything about this man or the way he looked at music! you just don't get it!!

  • Actually interesting! When did he record this? Hangs together much better than say, the Dante Sonata posted here.

  • Very amusing; i was in farts of lifter! This man has lost his way to a bullfight and ended up in a piano bar. After several vodkas he's under the illusion he's a a torero and starts beating hell out of the poor honky tonk, mistaking it for the black beast he originally wanted to see killed. This could be described as a "Coup DisGrace!"

    Following a previous remark: a "sex addict" doesn't marry ten times; he doesn't marry at all! I think the poor man's frustration shows here. 

  • @mahlerten1 yeah man i was like "whoa this is so monstrous" when I was listening to this. U no what they say. Gr8 minds think alike. MayB we should meet up? ;)
