[@pianistmatous4503]

One historical fact about this etude. In 1837 Charles Valentin Alkan wrote Trois Morceaux dans le genre Páthetique op. 15 and dedicated them to Liszt. Liszt thanked them enthusiastically and warmly, but it is evident that Liszt was interested in Op. 15 No. 2 "Le vent" where Alkan uses the chromatic rise and fall of the notes in the scale and imitates the sounds of the wind in all different ways. The constant rise and fall of thirty-two sixths sounds almost impressionistic, which is why this opus is very controversial for critics (It was at the time when Alkan compared his style, moreover, few people could play with such beauty as Alkan in his time). But the important thing. Liszt was so impressed by this that in this etude (snow-whirls) he tried to imitate the same thing, the sounds of the wind in a winter landscape, and he succeeded quite well. Alkan must have played this etude with a smile when he saw it. By the way, Liszt used the same technique in his Ballade No. 2.

[@AntorasStudio]

Speaking of Alkan… I would kill to see Traum play something by Alkan

[@Michelle6998832]

@@AntorasStudio That's some strong words 🤔

[@xenon3633]

Liszt also used the technique in Legend no 2! Another piece Id love to see traum plau

[@pianistmatous4503]

@@xenon3633 Yes you are right! To show power of sea waves.

[@Fasodo]

@@Michelle6998832 Not really, Traum has so much potential to play Alkan. He could start off with his easier pieces maybe, like his Nocturne Op. 22 and Op. 35 No 3 (Both are very beautiful imo)

[@sparx1599]

When he's gone for 2 months... then he drops this!

how has traum not gotten 1 mil+ subs this man is literally the king of youtube piano

You control is on point, clean and clear playing with the melody standing out! I always envy how fast you learn these!

[@gayggaming6859]

Yeah it's insane

[@theculturebridge417]

Yes I can't play this

[@NeoExchangedCorgi]

I found your choice of colors very curious. It took the story of a snowstorm out of my mind, which gave way to a new story in which a man is tempted by the devil, similar to the story of Faust and Mephisto. Nice performance and welcome back, Traum!

[@falkfink]

Agreed!

[@BBB-hi4hc]

My dream is to see Traum play some Liszt Faust symphony (arrange for piano) lol

[@NeoExchangedCorgi]

@@BBB-hi4hc Totally! The day I see a video in which Traum plays Stradal's arrangements of Liszt's symphonic poems and the Dante Symphony, my life will be complete, my friend!

[@jaketang892]

oh god , where do i begin with this piece. If there’s one piece i’d pick to perfectly describe my life, its Chasse Neige.

[@jessevallejo8797]

Why? Does Chasse Neige translate to Drama Queen in English?

[@PierreLM]

You couldn't pick a best one right now ! Congrats Traum for making such a beautiful channel !

[@whimsy_legato]

that was indeed TRANSCENDENTAL, Thanks Maestro! for giving us such a stunning performance.

[@DavitMinasyan-rn3fv]

One of few pianists to play the beginning correctly (with only right hand) and so beautifully at the same time

[@lamazaher797]

Wow… reminds me of the magical performance by Triifonov in Lyon. France.. Thank you !!!

[@wolfgangvanchopin4093]

I'm glad you're back. Not only Playing one of Liszt's hardest etudes (perhaps my favorite) But also amazingly you are the best pianist in KZbin for me and for many other people you inspire me a lot

[@derththeope3286]

This etude is one of his hardest etudes??

This upload excited me beyond comprehension, even at one in the morning.

[@jjg27]

I love your Liszt interpretations and it's awesome to see them all in this visual format too! I'm looking forward to the complete etudes set! Liszt wrote 24 etudes and as of now I can find you've recorded 17 of them. Only 7 to go! Transcendental: 6; 9; 11 Paganini: All done! 3 Concert: 1 "Il Lamento"; 2 "La Leggierezza" 2 Concert: Waldesrauschen Ab Irato: This one too!

[@alanleoneldavid1787]

Somebody pin this comment please

[@kumo-kun1831]

That’s some gentle approach there! The voicing are excellent and I see how you take your time on some passage, love it!

[@VinceRicafort-xo9lu]

Such a beautiful and unique interpretation! Usually people would just play this fast.

[@scourge4751]

Love the Liszt works! Recently I've developed a great fondness for Liszt's Ballade no.2 and I think you might have a great time with that piece too (I'm working on it myself). I'd like to see more interpretations of some of these highly slept-on Liszt pieces.

[@Lisztomaniac1022]

Agreed. Ballade 2 is one of my absolute favs of Liszt. His Harmonies Poétiques et Religieuses set is also amazing and kinda underrated (Invocation &Funerailes being my favourite)

[@user-gb4lt6lf4p]

I love chasse neige because this melody is so lyric. so I have practiced this piece 2 weeks ago!!!

[@parislovesrachmaninoff]

this etude is so deep and dramatic its gotta be my favourite. Thanks Traum.

[@maxwagner3181]

What a beautiful interpretation. The „reduced“ tempo is a very interesting approach. Thank you.

[@utsteinproductions]

Heard this played faster, but I honestly enjoy the slower pace. It brought out melodies and/or counter-melodies I hadn't heard before. Bravo!

[@johndavey72]

Traum . You've become a consumate master of this instument . I haven't heard this piece and it's difficulty is obvious . But what astounds me is you have some very serious players who all give the most wonderful tributes to your talent . We are all mystified by the relatively :"small" numbers of subscribers . I think it maybe because of your humourous videos you show from time to time . I think even you've become aware of how you've changed . Wonderful to hear from you . Thankyou 💞

[@jiyoukang660]

I think this is the most beautiful and lyrical Liszt transcendental etude, correct me if I'm wrong. I also love how Traum builds up tension subtly! His tone is also amazing in the low tones. I think the difference between amateurs and good professionals are this tone. Doesn't matter what instrument, tone shows your depth and experience.
