  • @jhoward1957 What a ridiculous put-down. Using the same logic, you could say that Horowitz was just a shadow of Liszt...

  • @beethomozart Liszt did not actually transcribe the March from La Damnation de Faust, he merely included the Rákóczi March in his Hungarian Rhapsody. Anyway, both are extraordinary pieces of music.

  • I love and am curious what the look on the performer's face at the end meant. "Whew, that was a wild ride." "Whew, I'm done." "Okay, there's all those months of work." or was he (as I do) counting back all the flubs and wrong notes? lol.

  • He looks kinda like Josh from Drake and Josh.

  • Amazing piece, and amazingly played. Probably the only pianist today who comes close to Horowitz in terms of power. Such few pianists today use such force and power in the bass today. But I still prefer Horowitz's playing, because Horowitz was... just Horowitz.

  • 相撲の「武蔵丸」みたいな顔してとてもピアニストには見えないと­ころが素晴らしい!!

  • Beautiful interpretation of Franz Liszt's march!

  • HOLY FUCKING SHIT THIS GUY IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!

  • I have never heard such dynamics from a piano. Arcadi Volodos is the finest I've ever heard.

  • It's obvious that one can act with a certain freedom in playing Liszt's Rhapsodies. That does not justify such a triumph of improvisative bad taste and compositional unskilfulness, shown by this man in other devastating operations on (against) Mozart. It's very sad to read exalting comments by -presumably- young people. Please don't mention Horowitz in relation to this, and study, look for Truth in Music, stop being victims of the collective hypnosis.

  • funny, people always argue on youtube at classical videos in favor of some other pianist, who is not the one playing on the video. This is the only possibilty to make other people see the actual performance inferior. And they need this because of envy of course..

  • Every pianist searches for the soul of his predecessors.

    And they bang the keys trying to find them.
