Have you ever seen anything like this? I haven*t. Gyorgy Cziffra. Hungarian pianist. One of my favourite and to me most important and influential musicians of all times. More videos will follow. I want people to listen to this guy. One of the most honest and deepest pianists I know. But let*s start with his probably most famous performance. Franz Liszt*s insane Grand Galop. Damn hard, terribly awkward. But such a fun! A masterstroke! Nobody has ever played it like he did. Nobody, absolutely nobody! It sounds like the easiest piece on earth for him but for us, the normal human beings , it is simply hell. Yes, many try, some perform, but Cziffra remains god. The greatest Liszt interpret of all times. More to follow!
