Cziffra was taught by one of Liszt’s very favorite pupils, and I think Cziffra more than made Liszt proud. What an extraordinary once in a generation talent.
it's insane how much better this is than every other version. It's so vicious and scorching hot, cziffra is the most bloodthirsty pianist of all time.
Him, arcadi volodos, marc andre hamelin... they can all play these pieces with ease
@@jponz85ага, прям запросто, поплёвывая.
At this speed. and this ferociously, I doubt@@jponz85
Bloodthirsty is a fantastic descriptor for Cziffra’s playing! Man had hands of steel
1:30 That left hand...😵😵
Liszt's warhorse in his years of virtuosity, and thoroughbred Cziffra plays the galop as fast as he can-can!
how do you know?
@@plekkchand Know what?
@@niccolopaganini4268 if this is Cziffras fastest, I guess
@⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻ I think I was making a joke about Cziffra being able tonplay it faster idk lol, I don't remember this comment XD
@OLIVIER MESSIAN IS REAL 100% ok
This very performance drew me in the world of classical piano music, which had been unknown to me until then but afterwards has been a world of rapture. This performance of Cziffra's changed my life.
I came from a background of 90's dance music, this shit's taken over my life - it's incredible.
What cool comments guys, welcome to the vast, wonderful world of classical music!
welcome!

Vast thanks!
Came here from Lisitsa. That one is My Little Pony. This is the real War Horse.
Lisitsa is a joke in classical history
lang lang would rather be the little pony and this is no insult! his interpretation is just as legit. only much less impressive :)
remsan03 you mean Joey from the film War Horse
@@flouz2 why? I listened to some interpretations of her, such as chopin's ballade no 1 or lizt's hungarian rhapsody no 2 and they really impressed me, although I understand that the performances of great pianists like cziffra manage to stand out in a great way I would not believe that lisitsa's performances so bad (I'm not defending or something like that I just want to know)
@@nilusdev996 Her hungarian rhapsody no. 2 is actually pretty bad. Her interpretation Is kinda weird and not too pleasing.
This is to be the most incredible thing I've ever heard on a piano, Cziffra was from another galaxy...
Фантастика!!! Дьердь Циффра играет за гранью возможного!!! Восхищение!!! Нереально!!!
The way he looks out at the audience with a huge grin on his face after hitting that last chord is golden.
Liszt would have loved this performance!
I've listened to this insanely virtuosic record at least ten times and each time I am astonished. This man is Liszt reincarnated.
All recordings of Liszt's Grand Galop by Cziffra are astonishing, but this....is inhuman.....it is the tipical " virtuosistic trance" by Cziffra, when he was achieving this state,,anything became possibile, even the impossibile.
Il dit de lui-même qu'à l'époque il était d'une sûreté absolue !... Faut le faire ! De plus certaines compositions de Liszt n'étaient pas comprises car difficilement interprétables à ce qu'on pensait, jusqu'à ...
I think this is better virtuosity than Horowitz displayed in Liszt
Cziffra's virtuosity is the ultimate virtuosity, nobody I've seen or heard to date comes close to him at that@@marksmith3947
It says there are no captions for this video, so I would like to offer some - "Hold onto your seats, because it's about to feel like they've sprouted legs and started jumping all over the room. Just remember to keep smiling while you roll around in a tornado of sound. You'll be fine."
Cziffra is an actual magician. As a pianist myself I can only applaud this delightful master.
Blows everybody out of the water. No chance next to this genius. And the energy and density! Pure scorpio pianist....all the way
He is one of those people who perform better when they're under great pressure, being up on stage with all the crowd and onlookers spectating
シフラの半音階的ギャロップ、定期的に観てしまいます。凄すぎて、何度見ても飽きません。
There are no words to describe this. Thankfully, this recording exists!
After all my years of listening, I can honestly say Cziffra is the greatest of them all
Why did he play the same section twice though at 2:00
@@therussiantrollnetwork7464 because he’s Georges Cziffra and can do whatever the fuck he wants
@@therussiantrollnetwork7464 That's how the original piece is played... in many other videos also they played that part 2 times
Absolutely. If to this day Cziffra is the greatest of all RECORDED pianists, logic favors him being #1 among those that have never been recorded as well.
@@saulgood7968Jorge bolet clears
same way kanye clears logic… lyrical spiritual miracles cant compete wit da real sauce
ce qui tout bonnement incroyable chez Cziffra c'est qu'il parvienne à une telle vélocité tout en ne sacrifiant pas l'interprétation de l'oeuvre !
Un pure génie du piano doublé d'un homme bon ...
This burns like fire! A pianist of the "golden age of piano'. They live forever!
The ultimate tour de force. We're very lucky to have this extraordinary performance on tape.
Yeah, imagine if we could record Liszt though :(
@@Pear6000 Yes, but having anyway Cziffra it's a ...?!..."Thank you"
All fingers works the same, no weakness in any
Compared to an earlier recording he made of this...this is somehow even better, and that was already one of most impressive things I've ever seen and heard. His left hand voicings are more nuanced, his chords are more full, and his left thumb is absolutely insane. Good fucking Lord have mercy. He just ripped this piece out of the piano...and all while casually sitting on a chair.
Gould vibes with the chari.
東京公演での録音。大して内容のない曲だが、シフラの技巧には仰天させられる。これ以上のものはないというほどの名人芸。この公演はピアニストも聞きにきていただろうが、プロにのみわかる切れ味の鋭さ。
My god, can't imagine how fast Liszt played after this
he must traded his soul to liszt
slower :D
bet franz liszt plays 0.5 faster than cziffra, but if i practice piano 10 years non-stop, i can play this piece, but faster and harder than liszt, cuz my transcription is named "Great Grand Chromatique" which is harder
@@FranzLiszt0904 What
@@FranzLiszt0904 what is he talking about 💯
Learning this piece now. At first my goal was to play it the way he does, now, it’s just to be able to play it well. No way anybody could ever do something like this again.
This should have 7 billion views.
凄すぎる‼️彼の壮絶な人生を物語っているようで、素晴らしいという平凡なコメントが恥ずかしいです。ありがとうございました🎵
Its moments like this when time literally stands still. A performance for the Gods.
This is the same recital in which he played a superb account of the rhapsody no 6, ballade no 4, spanish rhapsody, impromptu 3, scherzo 2, heroic polonaise, grande valse brillante, liebestraum, such very popular pieces ! I highly recommend anyone reading this to search for 1964 tokyo recital ! The recording is available on YT now
It seems to me that nobody has ever done anything in any field matching this standard of excellence. GOAT.
Ecco il miglior interprete di Liszt un virtuoso nato le sue mani volano sulla tastiera esattamente come Liszt un grande
O... M... G... hands the size of dinner plates and the mind to control them. It'll be a while before we see someone this good again, he was "borne into a family of travelling gypsy musicians", and attained incredible abilities from a young age. He has the facility, the humour and the passion like no one else.
Live Cziffra always delivers awe.
最高のパフォーマンス、最強のヴィルティオーゾ！
At about 30 seconds in, he plays the chromatic line for the 3rd time. He uses one of the very lowest notes to reiterate the line. I love that part. A stronger return. Almost authoritative sounding if it was but for the frivolous nature of the piece elsewhere. ❤
Supports my long-time contention that Cziffra was an alien. I mean, who ever played like him except for the master Liszt himself?
Agreed. Liszt was another...as he came up with this virtually unplayable piece.
How do you know how Liszt himself played? How very old are you?
The complete recital is available on a Medici Masters CD. A fabulous 'live' recital of Chopin and Liszt.
piano345 pls upload it on youtube
or on any other platform :(
@piano345
Really wish there was a complete video documentary of this magical recital exists !!
upload it its been 6 years .-.
It’s there on RUclips now!
Derrière cette virtuosité affolante ( Cziffra fut le plus prodigieux virtuose du XXème siècle ) il y a surtout un musicien extraordinaire ayant compris mieux que quiconque ce qu'est un " grand galop chromatique " mais lui seul avait les doigts et surtout l'esprit pour le jouer !!!!!!!
En fait je pense qu'il y a que les pianistes qui le savent, mais il faut utiliser surtout les bras pour jouer
Un immense pianiste ce Cziffra. Son interprétation du Grand galop chromatique reste la meilleure. Loin devant celle de Valentina selon moi!
Grande, grandissimo, il Dio del pianoforte.
ha,ha, comme toujours, on reste sans mots devant MÔSSIEUR CZIFFRA...
CHAPEAU BAS, etc, etc, etc...........
This incredible & valuable footage was broadcasted as a TV PROGRAM by the Japanese national broadcaster NHK in 1964, the year of the first Tokyo Olympics.
In the same year, SHINKANSEN also started its operation.
0:29 that bottom b flat sounds so brutal
1:30
Idiot.
@Arpicembalo can you go more detail thank you =))
Sounds beautiful

好きすぎて50回ぐらい聞いてる
挑戦したいんだけど楽譜手に入れないと…
Simultaneous jaw-drop, facepalm & mind blown!
I think cziffra was the only one who had the potential to play Paganini etude no 4 at the intended speed
Agreed
many can. it’s marked “andante quasi allegretto”, not “presto” like many people think.
I love his loud and trills. So loud, and semi fast. it adds a lot of color.
Absolutely incredible.
Cizzfra probably has the best techniques..... his hand speed is crazy.
Jacob's Music Mark Andre Hamelin is on the same level in my opinion
@@Ar1osssa I would say Hamelin comes close in technique but in musicality I would say Cziffra surpasses him by far.
@@markkovrizhkin7441 No I think it doesn't matter how cool technique you have. It's cool but not the main. The main thing is you should listen what you play and analyze it. Maybe Cziffra played more musician than Hamelin but it's subjectively imo
@@Ar1osssa I dont know when I said Cziffras technique was cooler but ok. Its his ability to play such insanity freely and controlled while also sustaining severe hand and wrist injuries (from torture).
@@markkovrizhkin7441 I mean in the global sence
It is not legal to play a piece like this. That confident ending gets me all the time with the fast octaves. He knew that he nailed it, and why shouldn't he? Scorching!
Cziffra's playing often sounds so wild, one can't imagine the piece to end in dignity, yet, like in this recording, it is often the finishing accords that seal the deal
i know cziffras playing speed is insane but at 1:14 how on earth is he cappable to play it THAT fast, simply amazing
If only the whole recital surfaces one day
Lets hope for that, I always enjoy new videos from younger Cziffra (well, mostly anything from Cziffra)
Its there now on Yt!
Live.
Jesus.
lololol
No
true.
cziffra's live ones are where the real performer shines
Surely even Alkan would sweat in this one ...
The best version
untill now i have not been able to enjoy liszt too much....but played like this? yes! I can see the fun in it...
Usually not at all a fan of cziffra, but he absolutely killed it here. Bravo!
why not a fan>?
FANTASTIC! Bravo!!!
Best so far
Így még nem hallottam senkitől eljátszani ezt a darabot. A 11 és a később minuszolóktól is szívesen meghallgatnám. :)
Bravo bravo bravo bravo brilliance music
It's the only version that is musically satisfying to me.
It was Cziffra, and the others.
0:29 i fking love the bass !
1:30
I like the way he stares accusingly at the top end of the piano (the bit he's not playing) , about 20 seconds in - as if the piano had done something wrong of its own.
The greatest! The only one! love!
Genial. Bravo,lovely pianist.
20年以上前、テレビでこの演奏を観たときは衝撃だった。50年以上前の日本でこれが弾かれたと思うと…
If you can gallop slowly, you can gallop quickly.
Legend
I would've expected postal service content on a channel called 'track your package or shipment' and not Liszt, but I'm not complaining XD
lmao
I just love when he starts looking to sky and playing at the same time, like: "Ya'll useless"
The man just standing up as if nothing happened 🤣
Fucking animal. Cziffra was an absolute beastttt
This must have been played in honor of the winner of the Triple Crown! Amazing!
1:29 can only be summed up as a chilling reminder of everyone else's mediocrity =P
Haden Plouffe Well said!

this is absolutely ...unbelievable.
人間技を通り越して神業！！😮✨✨✨
Astonishing recording....
Il y a cziffra et puis les autres.
Grand stampede chromatique!
How did you get the audio quality that well?
+bigPianist99 I used a multiple sources to accomplish highest quality ever.
Really great job on the audio. Congrats.
je pense qu'il s'agit d'un montage audio...le son est d'origine studio ?
@track your package or shipment --- Very impressive.
michel David sorry I couldn’t understand that one 😂
People really can play anything.
Thank you so much for uploading this! I love Cziffra's recordings, but seeing him actually play elevates the experience to another dimension. Unbelievable performance!
Does anyone know if there are more videos from this Tokyo recital? I can only find recordings.
Sorry, as far as I know, no more video has been aired on NHK TV.
the entire recital is available (audio only) on Yt now
Mythical piano playing
I can't believe my upright piano has the same amount of notes as the one in this video.
GENIAL
2:06-2:08 good Lord !
bravo
For fun, follow along with the score (if you can keep up!) and see how Cziffra made this performance his own, kind of Horowitzesque even.
Absolument grandiose
シフラといえば、やっぱりこれだな。
Impressionante
Cziffra is the reincarnation of Franz Listz who returned to mortal life to demonstrate and manifest the greateness of the "ROMA" ethnic people who have been maligned for so many centuries.
The persona of Cziffra proved that greatness of Listz by being Listz reincarnated again, but in a different body with a different name.
Cziffra was a "saviour" of the ROMA ethnicity, as it was the spiritual mission of Franz Listz to reincarnate once again, to uplift the Roma peoples.
早くていい感じ
At his best - he was the best.
1:30
Thank you very much
sorry broadcasted just this one..
A fan of Gould coming here to György .... haha ! Were so you so bored ...?
Fritz Maisenbacher I like Glenn Gould doesn't mean that I won't like other pianists...Cziffra, Horowitz, Rubinstein etc are also my favourite :)
GLENNGOULD1996 Ok no problem . Me too .
