[@GeertjeKIngma]

Amazing!!!!

[@ЕкатеринаМеркурьева-ц7к]

Это невероятно! Просто потому, что это сразу 4 рояля, 4 великолепных пианиста, блестящая фактура Чёрни. Праздник! Замечательно!К. Черни в новом для меня образе, не только как композитор этюдов и упражнений! Браво, маэстро и исполнителям!

A wonderful and joyous poece. The first few bars sounded a bit imposing 🎹 🎹 🎹 🎹 😊

I just ❤️ it is beautiful 😻.

Always fun to hear four pianists bashing away... but it does go on a bit!

[@annamariamanfredi6624]

Semplicemente "Splendido"!

[@paoloperrelli3226]

Czerny? Simply, a genius!

[@johnmanno2052]

This. This thing right here.

I am watching this on the composer’s birthday, February 21st! ❤😅

There's something almost Monty Python about the whole enterprise, the unvarying static video in master shot (despite wild activity on stage), the four males pounding away at the keys while the four female page-turners dutifully dispatch their roles. I'm waiting for a giant foot to come crashing down on the four pianos -- it never comes.

I love your comment ❤️

I found in this piece two themes that I already knew: Gualtiero's aria, from Il Pirata (act II) by Bellini and La campanella by Paganini.

[@jpuelopezify]

It seems to me that only one of the pianists -the second on the left side- is really playing a difficult part. The other three are only accompanying him with some chords, and the first one on the right plays a few rapid scales on certain occasions. It sounds very impressive, altogether.

[@monicajager130]

Paganini's La Campanela is there too.....

[@THALBERG81]

Il Pirata - Bellini, La Muette de Portici - Auber, La campanella - Paganini, Otello - Rossini,

I find Czerny's music very entertaining. I've read that he divided his music into 3 categories - teaching, more serious, and less serious or light. This is definitely in the 3rd. That passage with the ascending chromatic chords is too much!

[@annamariamanfredi6624]

In ultima analisi preferisco però i concerti ad un piano...All'inizio poteva apparire grandioso, sconvolgente, splendido come ho affermato, ma poi nel corso dell'esecuzione mi sono dovuta un po' ricredere...Si perde il fattore "emozionale": troppo suono non è sempre garanzia di "passione" e di "emozioni"...E il primo compito della musica di un certo tipo (alto) deve arrivare prima al "cuore" che alle "orecchie"...Può darsi che mi sbagli, ma io la penso così. Sorry!!

[@hussainsaibo9692]

Wish I could get my voume on louder to listen to the light stuff

[@monicajager130]

I suppose Czerny had fun composing all these "pastiche " concertos for 4, 6, 10 hands.....etc. I think Mozart would have had fun with it too. Problem is when Czerny was brought to this world Mozart was dying.

[@annamariamanfredi6624]

Ma è la campanella di Paganini ad un certo punto?

[@lockjiang]

a shame the acoustic is muffled, or it's really a tour de force performance.

[@johnlawrence2757]

That is some echo

[@jamesshin4901]

Poor recording!

[@levteiblum2412]

This quasi-pastiche is too long to be a romp, or a hoot, or entertaining. Get yourself a crossword puzzle to do if you must tune in. The funniest part of the experience is the StoneChords' invoking Monty Python. Don't walk this way.

[@organman52]

This music is terribly inferior. I wish more people would wake up to that.

[@johnpaulpiano4186]

can you define inferior? Could you compose music better than this?
