@@vanjavanja3905 In 9 months, I changed a lot and has known more about the classical music and piano. I would say the three best pianists are: Horowitz, Katsaris, Cziffra Edit: This comment has been made a year ago. It's Jul 1 now. I'd add Marc-Andre Hamelin.

There is a whole hungarish orchestra in each hand of Arcadi Volodos ... So many colors... It's not absolutely human, but gorgeous. Love the ladys with the fans, too :-)

[@taputapuu9487]

Like someone said on other video - this is not Liszt's rhapsody anymore, but Horowitz etude! And I love it Volodos plays this one the best, in my opinion

[@miquelcanosasanteularia1678]

Have to disagree on this take, i would called it horowitz cadenza

[@markmavashev4951]

You're right. Arkady heard this rhapsody on the radio performed by Vladimir Horowitz, wrote down the notes of this performance himself and performed it just like that!

Quelle beauté , un grand moment de Musique MERCI beaucoup

[@kpokpojiji]

When Liszt was teaching in Weimar, it was a game for his students to try and surprise him by putting two or more of the Hungarian Rhapsodies together into a single improvisation.

[@jonaswenner2369]

Um dos melhores pianistas do mundo!!!

[@JoshuaAalampour]

Just wonderful

[@ParthaDey97]

If only they had HD video in the 1990's

[@klaushermann6760]

You can see how fast he plays when he leaves the pressed key and you see it going up as normal, but he is in the other part of the piano now.

[@mrstevebournias]

awesome player

[@dougthatcher3521]

Beautiful indeed. Not quite the equal of Horowitz in phrasing and 'ease,' but still inspiring!

[@kpeterson2011]

holy changing camera angles batman!

I think that piano is a STEINWAY

[@lisztomani4c]

When Steinway got angry at his sons

[@kikkerman4644]

respect , russian power

[@jocan6666]

esiste il pdf di questa versione pazzesca?

[@hotsummerboy]

Who supplied the audience with valium? 🙄

[@marcgale6337]

Underrated comment

[@arpeggiomikey]

No "Standing O." after THAT?! Arrest these people!! 😆

[@Steinwaygrande]

Pity about the hissing in the background and the mediocre lighting

[@Awesome-oh7op]

Dang not to be mean but I kinda dont like this version like how he plays it I still love Volodos!!! Great job though

[@Moptohor]

And why?

[@user-mb3mf2og9k]

average

[@Mosotti]

I'm so happy someone invented the video camera and people stopped using potatoes to take pictures.

[@umegghju]

Ma chi ha montato il video? Arrestatelo

[@dougthatcher3521]

Utterly wonderful.
