What a tremendous player he was.

[@miguel-jq4bv]

13:33 my favorite part of the video, how he plays and speaks about that piece…

[@Stanvansandt]

Fascinating, and beautifully done. Thank you very much for making this available.

[@Kris9kris]

This is a much better quality copy than what I have on my channel - and with subtitles at that! Thank you for uploading it!

He was an incredible pianist and teacher! I remember discovering Zoltán in the video of him conducting the Hungarian national anthem! :)

Dante :)

[@fennelleastman8816]

He was never a strong technician,certainly not by todays standards, but he was always enthusiastic and sincere in his interpretations even if his tone left something to be desired.

[@noidontubi1086]

what?😂

[@soozb15]

not technically strong...? listen to his performance of Bartók's three etudes or Rachmaninov's 2nd Sonata, and perhaps reconsider.

[@fennelleastman8816]

@@soozb15 Kocsis was good in his day but times have moved on.He always struggled technically.

[@tudomnem2840]

Quite a poor translation...

[@stephenarnold6359]

But better than the other posting to KZbin which lacked subtitles. For a stumbling learner of the language, its a godsend

[@temerav67]

English is not as rich as Hungarian. That’s why.
