- CZIFFRA GIVES A SKYROCKETING VIRTUOSO PERFORMANCE OF DOHNANYI'S CONCERT STUDY 'CAPRICCIO.' NOTICE THE SINGLE HANDED OCTAVE GLISSANDO! CZIFFRA ATTENDED DOHNANYI'S MASTER CLASSES WHEN HE WAS A CHILD PRODIGY AT THE LISZT ACADEMY IN BUDAPEST.
He plays this very hard piece with such soft controlled movements that create a whole different vibe then the other versions I have heard.
In general he avoids banging in difficult pieces. He's the exception who doesn't murder the piano during the transcendental etudes for example
No one like Cziffra. He was and still is on a league of his own.
Un phénomène unique dans l'histoire du piano...
P
S CSS is a great game
Absolutely. Lovely pianist.
As always..so efforteless and unique virtuosity with musicality!
I like the way he plays the one handed glissando - spectacular.
It had to be too hard for him..he blinked his eye! Enjoy this interview.. www.examiner.com/article/interview-with-pianist-cyprien-katsaris-part-ii
Giannis Giannakos Thankyou for this article by Cyprien Katsaris. He is also a remarkable virtuoso. He won the first Cziffra Piano Competition. Genius will always win in the end and the public always adored Cziffra despite nonsense written by some critics and the jealousy of colleagues.
+Giannis Giannakos I'm sorry. If you are a musician I don't forgive you. If not, i forgive you. ...the reality, Giannis is that he plays" As always...so effortless and unique virtuosity WITH NO...NONE..NO musicality"
+personal private ...and where is your version of this fine composition. Or are you, as there are so many, another BS critic who spew all their so-called knowledge without any skill of their own to back up their words..
Great man and a great artist.
OMG, what a performance don't find the words. Thank you !
This is great! the scary part is he makes it sound effortless, no strain.
Just Speachless...Brilliant
Yes - a genuine keyboard phenomenon!
IL joue tellement d'une façon fantastique que je le reconnais à chaque fois aux premières notes. Cher maître , bien sûr et heureusement il y a vos enregistrements mais comme vous me manquer , j'ai vécu tellement de moments extraordinaires lorsque j'allais à vos concerts . J'aurai eu ce bonheur de vous connaître.
Fantastic !
FANTASTIC! BRAVO DOHNANYI,
BRAVO MY LOVE CZIFFRA !!!!!!!!!
inégalable ... encore 40 ans après , et sur un plateau TV !!!
damn it, cziffra is the best
Cziffra isn't afraid to take risks and plays with fearless abandon.
very true. He has an inimitable style
On the same level as Valentina Lisitsa
@@Ace1King1, No. Cziffra's technique is much better
@@frvl I have provided two links to Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2: Cziffra and Lisitsa.
Have a family member pick one by random and play it without you knowing who it is. Then listen to the other one. Select the one you think has the better technique. Is it Cziffra? Is it Valentina? It would be interesting to know. In any event, they're both pretty damn good!

HOLY SHIT DUDE. Thanks for uploading.
Fearless - Cziffra the daredevil performer without a safety net.
Doens't matter how much we practice ... to this level must be born.
no?!
George Cziffra one of the best piano virtuoso! Cziffrs was Ernest Dohnanyi pupil on the Franz Liszt Music Academy, in Budapest.
One of the best?? No one came even close to his nerve and passion and out of this world technique...not even close.
it was Cziffra...and the others.
How many times have you posted this comment?
Bryan Dyer about 145 times...why?
Just wondering.
Still prefer Horowitz sometimes
My God...such virtuosity.
Of course this is a 'live' TV performance and Cziffra plays with great abandon! He did record this Etude commercially and it is a more pianistically 'perfect' account.
Extraordinário!
Stupendous!!!!
Amazing Musician!
Stunning performance by one of the greatest of all concert piano virtuosos!
He is so good that he can play at any speed he wants and at any time he wants, and voice whatever part, or make adjustments he wants (typically making the piece harder)! He's a true virtuoso, and this performance is, for him, sloppy, which, his sloppy is better than my concert ready. Insane
Force of nature
Oggi la stupefacente eredita' di Cziffra,la vedo in Yuja Wang (Dio c'e..'))
First time I see a colored video of him.
No one like CZIFFRA!
Genius!
Wow! Just wow!
We are waiting one other Czifra.
Maybe it’s not another czifra. But someone else
@@DianAmini , maybe Christina Miller in 10 years.
Volodos
There's Hamelin with his insane cadenza for HR#2 and recordings of Sorabji.
Volodos could have been, but he chose another path. Lets play Schubert sonatas for 10 years. Well, he sure is not a next Cziffra, so lets keep waiting. Maybe in a few generations, hope to still be alive to catch it.
Mind blowing
SIN PALABRAS 💘
Please see my other videos of Cziffra in colour. The Scherzo and finale of Liszt's first concerto for instance.
He's so insane. Why does he octave gliss near the end?! As if it wasn't hard enough.
Simple.
Because it's Cziffra, and Cziffra does Cziffra things.
Does he need another reason? Not at all.
Because he can
It's a dumb gesture imo. The original writing has the gliss to the highest f, Cziffra makes it sound murky because he went above it and it doesn't sound great. Nailed the octaves though
1:49 The ascending octave glissando
happy birthday cziffra today! 100y
He was such a god of the piano!
superhuman to the max.
He owns on this etude
Really? Try Horowitz
Great Hungarian Tradition!
Even Jesus had his critics....
Spot on!
I see orchestral players applauding. Was there anything Cziffra played with the orchestra in another part of the video. I'd love to see it if so.
He would have played concerto movements but I dont have the film. I have uploaded film of him playing the scherzo and finale of Liszt's first piano concerto from a different occasion. Hope you enjoy it.
Many thanks. I'll be sure to check it out.
Well, knowing the score well, this isn't a pianistically 'perfect' performance of this 'Etude', but it certainly is a 'Capriccio'!
Geert Dehoux, pianist.
You are an idiot.
@@plekkchand ...with a stick up his arse.
cziffra did show us the most quick tempi ever achieved. but here I regret the lack of preciseness in rythm
insane...
most insane interpretion of this dohnanyi's capriccio :O
Hungarians make the best pianists!! Liszt, Cziffra, Dohnanyi, Bartok, Kocsis... u get my point :)
Jack Curley Liszt was German. Just born in Hungary.
Steven Yourke pretty sure he was Austrian/Hungarian
Jack Curley He could not speak a word of Hungarian. His native language was German. His family and name are German. That means his nationality was German despite the fact that he was born in Hungary, a few hundred years from the Austrian border.
@@syourke3 as a Hungarian I read and learnt about him a lot and saw many-many autobiographic films about him. For your information: Ferenc Liszt's father was Hungarian (Ádám Liszt) and his mother was Austrian. He was born a small Hungarian village called that time Doborján which later was attached to Austria, but he was living in this small village for some years mostly in his childhood (started his studies in that village, but he had an Austrian teacher that time already). Many debates were about his nationality, but Liszt Ferenc always kept himself Hungarian and said that many times in his time. That's true he had problems with Hungarian, but that's not true he couldn't speak at all. Most of the time the family at home spoke German, because his mother wasn't able to get to learn the Hungarian language. He generally understood the Hungarian speech, and many times he made himself Hungarian posters before he giving concerts (so he could write Hungarian as well, just with small mistakes). .... Etc, etc ...
But I think more important, he was a phenomenon in our world. :-)
Lajos Deli There is a lot of controversy over Liszt’s nationality among scholars. Obviously, he was born in a German speaking town in what was then the Kingdom of Hungary. He was a Hungarian citizen, carried a Hungarian passport and despite is inability to speak the language, thought of himself as Hungarian. But that does not answer the question about his ethnicity, only of his citizenship. One’s nationality is defined by one’s native language, not by one’s citizenship. Liszt’s native tongue was certainly German. His mother was Austrian and Bavarian. But what if his father? According to Wikipedia, Liszt’s father was born Ádám List in a small town which is located today in Austria very near the Hungarian border. Adam’s family was partly of Swabian German background. Adam’s father - Franz’ grandfather - was named Georg Adam List. Georg was employed by Prince Esterházy and both he and Adam were Hungarian citizens. The family lived in the German-speaking parts of Hungary and thus had only a rudimentary knowledge of Hungarian. In his youth, Ádám changed the spelling of his name from List to Liszt according to Hungarian pronunciation. He was himself a talented musician and played the cello in an orchestra under the direction of Joseph Haydn. If all that is correct, then it appears that Liszt’s father was of German ancestry, but Hungarians claim he was Hungarian and Slavs claim him too, on the grounds that List means “tree-leaf” in Slovenian and Croatian. As an American, I have no especial interest in the question. I’m certainly not going to resolve it if Liszt scholars are still debating it. He was at least half-German (mother) and perhaps on the father’s side, too, although the question remains unresolved. No documentary evidence has been found to substantiate the origin of the father’s family.
AWH:D How is possible this ? :D
to do this... this solution onto all problems in world or in the dream
Cziffra's playing of this piece is legendary! Horowitz's recording of that piece is also awesome!!
czcams.com/video/aIxteLXK8n4/video.html
That sounds....very, very hard. It makes something like the Rach 3 look like a freakin Candycane Lane. This reminds me of the Skryabin-Szigeti "Etude in thirds", as played on the violin. Staggeringly difficult to play completely in tune and with crystal clear articulation - easy to play sloppy, but of course that's not desirable.
unbelievable!!
Yes - astonishing 'live' TV without a safety net!
My god his speed is scary
Piece of pie
Then let us taste a slice of your pie.
joli !
No one plays it at this tempo today. No one.
Lisitsa? The youtuber pianist..lol..good joke! As for Katsaris he was friend of Cziffra and great admirer of him too. Just listen.. arioso7.wordpress.com/2011/11/14/the-gift-that-keeps-on-giving-cyprien-katsaris-shares-thoughts-about-pianist-gyorgy-cziffra-and-his-bumblebee-transcription/
@Cringey Libtard dude gtfo with both katsaris and lisitsa (who btw has a soul more empty than a rock)...
Maybe volodos, but he chose another path, that of playing Schubert serenades for 10 yrs now...
Well, everyone with his destiny but for fukings sakes, stop comparing Cziffra with trash, are you out of your mind? Are you deaf? Are you completely dead inside???
Everyone talks about his octave gliss like it's something hard or notable. The note usually ends on the highest f, Cziffea sounds terrible because all he did was go up to the highest C. And on the piano he's playing most definitely the keys are light so it's easy, it's the only truly regrettable part of this performance. Most of the other parts of improv that he implements are pretty good sounding, it's more acquainted with the music. And of course his speed with the proper fingering is unmatched by anyone (you'll notice as much easier to play the first few bars if you ignore the fingerings).
FOR HIM DAT ALREADY MASTER ALL OF LISZT'S MUSIC.SUCH REPERTOIRE SUPPOSE TO B A PIECE OF CAKE TO HIM
octaves glissando
😀
Incredibile,batte tutti i virtuosi odierni!
I know.
ehm?… ok… Cziffra
horowits said once: there are three kinds of pianists
1 the jewish pianist
2 the gay pianist
3 the bad pianist
wich one is he????
lmao
The pianist he admired and wanted to be. (That's true story, Horowitz once told Katsaris that he wants to be Cziffra, because he has perfect and amazing technique.)
He's Cziffra.
Quite gratuitous, the way he turns the glissandi into octave-glissandi *upwards*. Almost everybody cheats in the downward octave glissandi at the end of the Waldstein, but do do upward octave glissandi is unheard of! Have to say, though, I prefer Pawlik's performance, musically.
I've heard this piece played so slow b4, but this god sped it up...the quality is demeaning cziffra, but he does a good job.
Not his best. Still a miracle of speed and percussive technique.
I'm sorry, but I really prefer Stephen Hough's performance over this one. By quite a margin...
Agreed! Much cleaner, and just as exciting!!
His performance: very good. The piece itself: terrible.
Lots of notes and technique but unfortunately just a jarring sound with zero musicality
This is for you Moron:czcams.com/video/xrtKcmLTIFk/video.html
Just for you: czcams.com/video/RVg0WAhMGq0/video.html
I can do it better...
Absolument aucun intérêt d'écouter cette absurdité même si c'est Listz qui l'a composé , autant écouter du circus kolpa ou mieux rien du tout !
