Franz Liszt - Piano Concerto No. 2 | Complete

[@GeorgiiCherkin]

Actually a whole life getting such level, but especially for this concerto I needed few months to learn it. I played both concertos by Liszt in one evening - this was one of the most challenging event in my life.

[@andyyu6222]

perfect.

[@barbaratzitzi3595]

You are marvelous perfect the best

[@ricardonascimento6020]

Bravo!!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@StephenGottPianist]

@Georgii Cherkin Live. Greetings from UK Wonderful performance. Enjoyed it very much.

[@김동현-y1c]

I love your performances of both concertos!

[@carolyndrummond3455]

Still listening to this beautiful piece of music

[@robertlee3756]

Me too

[@GeorgiiCherkin]

Yes, the 2-nd concerto surprises everyone who thinks Liszt is all about just technique and fast passages.. It is also my favorite.

[@adrianlekay7715]

I too played both in one night

[@liam5075]

I really like this piano concerto too.

[@nikitasidorov8722]

You have somehow managed to surpass Lazar Berman. I honestly thought it was not humanly possible.

[@Tnt10th]

The best performance Ever !!

[@maxwellperes1315]

The best performance of Liszt Piano Concerto N.2

[@CastleMr40]

How brilliant of Liszt to put a cello-piano duet in the middle of this piece. Most beautiful.

[@mavoisine3]

So handsome and such a beautiful musician. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.

[@behzad1002]

Yes, he is very good looking master.

[@taniapetrova9977]

I am obsessed with this phenomenal performance and continue to wonder at the fact that it has less than million views...😢

[@snegalin]

the best version of Liszt piano concerto 2. i think

[@volition5783]

the lucas debargue version is better look : lucas debargues final tchaikovsky 2015

[@stephenhall3515]

I have never been much of a Liszt person (excepting some of the tone poems) but this performance of the 2nd concerto, composed long after the mania years, lays out the stall (as it were) of the composer in mature prime. These musicians actually listen to each other and the work points to the future in so many ways. Yes, there are the usual fireworks but Liszt was clearly well on the way to a sort of concerto for orchestra with piano using the arch form used later by Ravel and Bartok as well as Prokofiev and many others. Sometimes a particular performance of superlative ensemble respect and affection can reveal the secrets of a great work. This is one such.

[@filizdener6052]

A master piece, and an incredibly talented ,brilliant pianist, magnificient!!! BRAVO!!!

[@taniapetrova9977]

Happy birthday, Liszt!/22-nd of October/🎈 Love your incomparable, eternal music!❤️

[@taniapetrova9977]

Благодарим ви!

[@GeorgiiCherkin]

Благодаря Ви, Таня! 🥰

[@carolyndrummond3455]

This is my favorite!! I LOVE to listen to this.....soft and then strong surprise when it turns to the fast pace that I love at around 13:00.

[@StephenChumley]

Liszt is really, really wonderful.

[@carolyndrummond3455]

This has got to be the most sensational piece he has ever played! Can't count the times I've listened to it. Master od the piano.

[@tiborvisi7438]

Thanks for the tracklist and the link for the sheet music!

[@atherismagic4639]

Not all heroes wear capes.

[@richdisilvio4591]

After listening to this splendid performance, and knowing when it was composed, it is clear to see why Liszt was the most advanced composer of his era. This one piano concerto alone offers more blood, passion, beauty, virtuosity and majestic grandeur than any other concerto in Liszt’s day or previously. It was ground-breaking and utterly sublime.

[@fishyfinalform8982]

Truly incredible.

[@moy9022]

Georgii, we really appreciate your effort and time in preparing this sublime music for your audiances, your never disappoint us, thanks again.

[@GeorgiiCherkin]

Wow, thank you so much, Moy!

[@mariaslafleur5368]

One of the best performances of my favorite concerto by my favorite,composer. What a performance! Come to New York please.

[@annicklavie7412]

merveilleux artiste, virtuose accompli, on vous aime beaucoup, Mr Cherkin

[@SergioBedessi]

Excellent performance. One of the best I've ever listened to.

[@GeorgiiCherkin]

Thank you! Yes, I plan to upload it soon - actually I played it on the same date as this one, the both concertos in one evening.

[@waflu918]

Wow, those 22 minutes passed so fast. Amazing

[@freemamirrlees8725]

The best piano concerto ever!!!

[@alwatsonpianist]

Performance of the highest standards in dynamic control, gorgeous tonal quality and color, passionate expression and technical precision. Bravissimo!!!

[@ElizabethLawrenceBermuda]

Oh, you are just a gift from heaven Georgii. Thank you ever so much for sharing this. I am just so mesmerized and so absorbed by your playing and full of ecstatic emotions. I can watch and listen to you forever. God bless you more my dear.

[@jackriggs1805]

A first for me listening to this fabulous young artist and what a treat for the end of a day that's been dreadful. .......and Liszt goes without saying. Will listen over and over again.

[@sejautil8]

Simplesmente Sublime! Gratitud!

[@plto4ka71]

БРАВО Георги. Страхотно изпълнение. Един от любимите ми концерти за пиано. Браво на всички!

[@ТатянаПетрова-ю1ф]

PHENOMENAL PERFORMANCE!!! ❤️I like very much your descriptions! 🍀

[@GeorgiiCherkin]

Thank you! I hope too..

[@amatusaguerra5260]

Belíssimo concerto!! É de fazer a nossa alma chorar de emoção!

[@dalestroker6809]

I agree very much! Eu gosto muito!!!!

[@GeorgiiCherkin]

Thank you, Dihelson! I appreciate your comment very much! Wish you all the best!

[@hscutenako3029]

Liszt is my favorite composer

[@warrenpugh7844]

Hs Cutenako I love the rascal toooooo.

[@lorenzomigliorelli6123]

Hs Cutenako me too

[@icarrus4u]

+Hs Cutenako He was BADASS!!

[@qdewfwef]

at first for me too.. than I felt in love with Brahms :)

[@thszntatst]

I listened to this driving along a rugged stretch of Hawaiian coastline last night in full moonlight. The repeating theme resonated with the variations of surf covered lava flows. Such emotion is never weary, an unapologetic force of nature. And, this performance captures the poetry of the great composer with stunning integrity.

[@dalestroker6809]

You possess good taste!!!

[@marionlovett7167]

From one master to another master "Well Done".

[@captaincrunch7126]

At 6:10 I swear his hands formed together in to one. wow...just wow. Bravo Gerogii!!

[@carolyndrummond3455]

He plays more like LISTZ (softly AND THEN (WHAT'S THE WORD...) STRONG. HELP ME WITH THIS WORD. HIS HAND MOVEMENT IS DIFFERENT THAN ANY OTHER PIANIST i HAVE EVER SEEN AND ALTOGETHER, HE HAS IT ALL.

[@carolyndrummond3455]

I listen to this several times a day or night. So beautiful.

[@nikitasidorov8722]

Me too. Goes well with a valve amplifier and Bang and Olufsen speakers.

[@Ileana5173]

Bellísima obra del admirable Liszt, y excelente interpretación del joven búlgaro Georgii Cherkin!

[@PN-sk3ve]

this is was a fantastic performance, full of lawyers of emotions, it was like watching the ocean waves coming in one after the other with consistency and steadiness, some times soft and subdued and at other times swift and strong... words can not describe how beautiful this performance really is.. Bravo to Georgii Cherkin!!

[@GeorgiiCherkin]

Thank you a lot!

[@GeorgiiCherkin]

I appreciate this, thanks!

[@adinar.thomas8702]

what a gifted lad, thank you for that brilliant performance, congratulations

[@GeorgiiCherkin]

Thanks a lot!

[@oOVacskamatiOo]

köszönöm LISZT-nek és ÖNNEK csodálatos zene egy magyarnak mindenképpen

[@estherszalay5921]

Beautiful music, well played. Thank you

[@shishirth]

What a wonderful performance - beautifully lyrical and also powerful and inspired! Very effective partnership between pianist and orchestra - thank you for sharing this magical interpretation.

[@warrenpugh7844]

Better call a fire truck. That piano is gonna catch fire. This fellow is brilliant Georgii. He reminds me a little of John Erickson who played the role of pianist in that 50 year old movie Rhapsody. Its uncanny. Thanks for this great gift.

[@maore4739]

j'en ai des frissons ! des sentiments joyeux scintillent !!! Merci Liszt

[@Jim8515]

Just wonderful!!! Thanks for posting this!!!

[@LibraryPervert]

Superb _authentic_ classical performance -- forcefully haunting and baroque, such as when Deine Lakaien did a performance with the Vienna Philharmonic. However, this 'classic classical' piano concerto lends even more of a Gothic chill to the air than 'modern classical' groups can perform.

[@JesseDavis7373]

I'm just starting to practice this work at the piano. Very rewarding piece to listen to and to learn! Thanks for your interaction with the listeners on this comment section.

[@김동현-y1c]

This piece is so beautiful

[@GeorgiiCherkin]

I appreciate it, thank you!

[@geertruidadegraaff3134]

C'est une telle joie de vous entendre jouer si magnifiquement cette belle composition extraordinaire! Il est l'un de mes concertos préférés de tous les temps.

[@GeorgiiCherkin]

Thank you so much!

[@songjahass4930]

These piano both concertos by Liszt are the most beautiful and marvelously stunning I ever heard in my whole life time so far, how you challenge to play is extraordinary even as lifetime learning, practicing with gifted talent. Very much appreciated for your superb awesome performance!! Songja H.

[@carolyndrummond3455]

I listen to others play this piece and it sounds terrible. Georgeii play so smooth and doesn't snarl up his fingers the way "they" do. Keep playing the way you do and send us more. I love the way you play the piano.

[@richardbrown6564]

Liszt was a fabulous composer and transcriber of others works. He was not Beethoven nor was trying to be like Beethoven. This a fabulously played piece.

[@warrenpugh7844]

Richard Brown Right on the button Richard. Thanks

[@richdisilvio4591]

Liszt didn't try to be Beethoven or anyone else, he surpassed them all as far as being a pioneer. Liszt was not just the leader of his own Romantic era, but laid the seeds for the future Impressionistic and Atonal schools of Debussy, Schoenberg and others. No one in music history was ever credited with being at the forefront of 3 schools of music. Liszt was unique. For more info google the Franz Liszt Site

[@timward4227]

Well put, and if I may add, those truly interested should read Prof. Alan Walkers three books. They will give you a 'window' into the over one thousand concerts that he gave through every haunt in Europe and Russia, over a seven year period, in order for those less fortunate that would never have the opportunity to go to concerts or hear the Masters from Bach to Chopin, including his compositions. Alan Walker spent over twenty years, following Franz Liszt life, from his barnstorming virtuosity, to his Weimar years when he took orders to be a Priest, and translation of over eight hundred works, including all Beethoven nine symphonies.

[@TM-qw6yo]

I love this version of lizt's #2 ....more dramatized and passionate. You can feel the music passing through your soul. Well done Cherkin

[@Suvikuja4A]

I have missed this concerto while my computer has been under repair. It is so dramatic, versatile, lyrical and beautiful. Beethoven's 4th and 5th piano concertos are close to to this one,in being massive and bold, but Listz is not Beethoven.

[@Suvikuja4A]

Bravo Georgii!!

[@kalausen]

Wow ! ! ! ! la interepretación: perfecta la complejidad: avasallante

[@GeorgiiCherkin]

Yes, that's true :)

[@johnrapp8873]

A most beautiful performance! Thank You all...John Rapp

[@GeorgiiCherkin]

Yes, there is an influence that can be heard..

[@AlexanderArsov]

Awesome performance of awesome music.

[@zulaycasagrande1476]

[@obrcht]

beautiful performance

[@tomg8638]

Superb playing!

[@benettholmstrom1563]

I saw the Berlin Philharmonic perform this, conducted by Jakob Hrusa, and featured Jean Yves-Thibaudet on the piano. I'm not ashamed to say I cried when it ended.

[@sfsphil]

Lovely piano tone. Very nicely done.

[@idfazekas1199]

[@carolyndrummond3455]

Still has the same thrill listening to this piece. What a performance!!

[@DihelsonMendonca]

Hello, Georgii Cherkin. Congratulations for this very good rendition of the Liszt second concerto. You played it very passionate, clear notes, and with a strong personality since the first chords. Thanks for notifying me of this recording, which I put on my all time favourites. Very very good indeed, and allow me to say that at youtube I am hated as a guy who doesn´t frequently like much things...

[@ВераСапожкова-ф6ы]

Спасибо! Вы, Георгий, замечательный пианист! Обворожительное исполнение! Замечательный оркестр!

[@rexmarcussarabia2355]

Altough I have no idea how you found me (: Hopefully one day I can also perform with an orchestra, I have that dream but here in Portugal it's very hard and I still have a lot to learn in Piano... You have an amazing musicality and that's what I appreciate the most in every pianist (:
