Liszt-Stradal - "Hungaria" Symphonic Poem - Risto-Matti Marin Piano

This solo piano arrangement of Liszt's "Hungaria" was created by August Stradal (1860-1930). He was a virtuoso pianist who arranged all of Liszt's Symphonic Poems for solo piano. He even studied with Liszt for a short time. Risto-Matti Marin (b. 1976) is a Finnish pianist who has recorded Stradal's arrangements of Liszt's Symphonic Poems.
The following is copied from Wikipedia:
Hungaria has no programme and is best considered a Hungarian Rhapsody on an extended scale. After a short introduction, marked Largo con duolo, the main theme of the March in the Hungarian Style appears on clarinets, bassoons and violas. This theme and its continuation dominate the first section of this work, though interrupted at one point by a cadenza for solo violin. This section contains the stylistic characteristics of the verbunkos, with Largo con duolo sections alternating with an Andante marziale in a contrast of lassú and friss, sharply accentuated rhythms and profuse violinistic ornamentation. The music increases in violence, eventually leading to a second theme. One of the most typical sections of this work is a funeral march based on this second theme. Here, Liszt clearly wished to symbolize both the defeat of Lajos Kossuth's revolt in the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 and the hope that one day Hungary would be liberated by its own people. The work ends by referring back to both themes.

@Enescu You may know, but others may not, especially as Howard’s is the only commercial recording.

@Enescu I didn't know that piece, so I'm thankful for the other person for pointing it out.

Stradal’s arrangements are so damn difficult

[@Quotenwagnerianer]

Stradal must have had a terrifyingly good octave technique. It's insane how often he asks the most ludicrously fast passages to be played in octaves. The one were I always think this is just insane is the opening of the Finale of the Bruckner 8. Whoever can play this in tempo? Or his transcription of the Faust Symphony, ludicrously difficult.
