I'm going to buy a Hamburg Steinway sometime soon. I love my schimmel213 over the Seilers, even which tend to be overly brilliant to me. It's a matter of preference.

hence, both are clear-toned pianos. it's just a matter of tuning

A really sensitive and commanding, yet personal interpretation. This pianist is under-rated. Not as "deep" as Richter or Cziffra?...? Beautiful!

Fantastic tone and personality, very originals "improvisations" wonderfull, deep soul, and to be really compared with one of my teacher... Cziffra!!!

I do not like it, first of all, his own arrangement is not what we are used to by wild, normally his arrangements are much better. Second, if you want to play this piece so slow , you better make more of it for the interpreation, then I would recommend arrau, also somewhere on youtube, he plays it very slow but very very deep.

yeah you are absolutely right, but i think he overplayed the upper notes a bit. i think the intention of liszt was to let them just be the background, like a purling creek when you walk along it.

Personally I think that the ear-scratching at exactly 3:00 is distasteful to the aim of what Liszt originally intended. What a grotesque symbol of modern interpretations of already-perfect pieces.

What the Hell? Earl Wild was a good friend of mine and he could run circles around you at the piano. Think before you insult such a fantastic player.

You're kidding, ...( 6 months ago by mcmilld1)
You're kidding, right? It looks to me like a fly landed on his ear or something and seriously distracted him. He cares about the sound, not about his appearance, and he obviously couldn't maintain that sound without dealing with the distraction. Every serious musician shares/shared the same philosophy, including Liszt. So how exactly is that distasteful to Liszt's intentions?

Hamburg's are nice, but take much effort to make performance ready, I used one at the Anne Margritte in '81, went well, you must voice carefully, in return they give tremendous range and evenness. Good luck.

Its in the score. Look carefully. At that particular moment there is a direction that says "wiggle your head", then immediately after it says "wave your hand over right ear".
