    Honestly, as a younger guy with a rather… complicated relationship with the metal genre, I feel like this piece resonates with me because it embodies the sort of dark energy that I like in metal while avoiding the most obnoxious elements that are unfortunately all too common in it.

      Unfortunately in 2 parts:
      Part 1: ruclips.net/video/i-Tc0btaNPw/видео.html
      Part 2: ruclips.net/video/aW9657uqeDI/видео.html

    Лучшее исполнение этого произведения для меня. Еще Марта Агрерих очень шикарно так играет! Но без этой записи выше всё равно мне лично чего-то не хватало бы)) Да Валентина просто создана для исполнения Листа!
    И отдельно про качество... По мне, здесь оно такое, какое и должно быть. Все ноты можно услышать. Акустика зала - звучит грандиозно. Как и должно такому Танцу. В других версиях опять же... Часто записано так, как будто рояль звучит глуховато что ли. А здесь он прямо разливается акустикой. 16 минут удовольствия, сравнимого с самыми приятными ощущениями, которые можно испытать! Спасибо, Валентина!)))
    P.s. ну и про темп некоторые говорят, что здесь он как будто быстрый очень. А по-моему Листу бы это очень понравилось. Какое-то сумасшествие что ли здесь весьма уместно на мой взгляд. Это ведь тема смерти всё же. Техника у Валентины богоподобная (или дьявольская) - для этого произведения ооочень подходит. Послушал версию Мацуева. После этого видео как-то не воспринял. Нет того уносящего полета там что ли.

    Once Liszt told a student who was playing the héroïque polonaise: "I don't care how fast you can play those octaves - I want to hear horses galopping menacingly".
    Totentanz - death laughing and dancing in our face. At first it seems like he is dancing alone, but soon enough we join him without being conscious of it. And rather than being afraid, we will come to realise that without him we could not be.
    V. Lisitsa is a good pianist, but to my ears the only really inspired performance of this piece is that of Michelangeli. Cheers!

      Ed Herold Don't be embarrassed. I love her solo version just as much as the orchestra version because it is as challenging. The amount of views and audience engagement of her solo version over the years has taken a life of it's own. Although I was so intrigued to actually see what the Orchestra version sounded like and a bigger blessing to see Val be apart of it.
