  • this is a strange piece

  • The difference between Brendel's approach to Liszt and that of the typical keyboard virtuoso is that Brendel is far more interested in showcasing Liszt the composer rather than Liszt the wizard of the keyboard. He is one of hose who perceives that Liszt's music had far-reaching influence on the music of composers who succeeded him and that this influence would even extend into the 20th century.

  • @achan1058 Or Hindemith

  • If I didn't know it was by Liszt, I would have guess Scriabin.

  • What is truly incredible is that Liszt lived long enough to have gone from the Romantic period to the beginning of atonality.

  • My all-time favorite version. I've always felt this somewhat cold, detached VoxBox sound adds to the genius of the piece and performance. I'm sorry, I can't imagine a modern piano recording of this.

  • Varese you're completely right about the genious of LISZT/composer and the understanding by Brendel who is an intellectual of the music!!

  • @Benne86piano You can't even imagine how much I agree with you. His "greatness" is always was big puzzle for me. Just mannered and shallow musician.

  • it's not a strange piece, it's a very difficult one, and for the time it had been composed really something new!

  • Great sound!

  • I can imagine that for Liszt this is pretty atonal. For our ears it sounds more like IN BETWEEN keys, since diminished chords, that make up a great part of this composition, are traditionally used to slide from one key to another. Brendel touches lightly one "soupçon" of a key after another, like a butterfly fluttering from one flower to another. Great!

  • After listening to 20th century pieces, you can see how advanced this piece was.
