As always in Cziffra: 10 technique, 0 music.

@kzelmer Funny, I seem to be the only one to agree with you. I hate Cziffra in every way possible. Yes, he can play alright. But never have I heard him play a technically easy piece, or show any form of emotion. His transcriptions are just rediculous and his tone is very harsh. There you have it. I guess that people are drawn to simple showmanship and look past any form of musicality. Shame.

THE BEST!

6:06, non piano

Beautiful playing, full of fire, yet it is still MUSIC. Cziffra does not pummel the piano, his ff is still legitimate piano sound. He does not overpedal to make more noise. He also points the rhythm with grace and variety. Real brilliance, no brutality.

@iPlayPiiano It is. I play the Grand variant, I'm gonna take a look at this one. But listening to Cziffra already makes me sad =P

[iPlayPiiano]

The only piece from the transcendental actually harder then it's equivalent piece from the grand etudes. Or so I've heard.

trolling at 5:05. He thinks its too easy.

[Desmonddd2002]

@kzelmer always in stupid youtube comments: 10 bs, 0 intelligence. 

[Chiu19931993]

I think Berezovsky's interpretation with pedal is better.

I especially enjoy he playing 3:10 - 3:43.

[Rachmaninoffkid]

I kinda like the technical and dynamic contrast in tis piece, from prestissimo cdouble whole tone chromatic locked thumbs octaves to a beautiful sound at 2:14.
