Valentina Lisitsa plays Liszt Totentanz [HD 1080p]

[@TankTaur]

Probably the happiest moment in that piano's life.

[@Cabinessance]

Any artist is only going to perfrom this sort of work for a limited number of times in their life. To be present at one of those performances is a real honour and privilige. To witness it on You Tube is still an honour and a privilige. Thank you to Valentina Lisitsa and the team who produced this.

[@MrChochulchang]

It's amazing that piano is still standing after she hit that.

[@karlbauer9734]

Dem alten Piano widerfuhr die plötzliche Ehre, noch einmal virtuos bespielt zu werden. Das Instrument tat daher sein Möglichstes, um das wunderbare Spiel durchzuhalten.

[@Justin-j6u]

She has memorized so many countless songs its hard to believe 😮!!!

[@MaevaStardust]

It’s easy to believe it when you also know that she practiced 14 hours a day.

[@lindabemis6158]

she is nothing short of amazing .. and she looks like she really likes playing the piano and is having fun ..

[@pakyukwokalex3683]

How could this piano withstand her insane repeated actions at 06:21 :o

[@oscaraceves7212]

Gran humanista y la mejor pianista.

[@rodstartube]

She IS a real musician, she loves sharing her art to whoever wants to hear it. I would have payed to be there. PD:I would have opened piano doors to expand the sound.

[@tarotaovivo]

the person who did not enjoy the video does not know who is the pianist! BRAVA, VALENTINA

[@RodrigoCFD]

A lot of hours. They said people held the train with their bare hands until she finished all the pieces.

[@Nobilangelo]

The queen making a royal progression to the amazement of the people.

[@delloso100]

WOW TREMENDOUS ! Thank you. ``Many a good tune has been played on an old piano`` and this one tops the list.

[@marlonrodriguez6256]

[@javiermendoza1423]

[@busashka]

I am a bad man, but Lizst and Lisitsa take all my badness away, I"m again the little boy, who can enjoy the wold as it is, thank you Valya!!!!!

[@domeramon9930]

Il faut vraiment être une super pianiste pour jouer dans de pareilles conditions ! Bravo !!!

[@domeramon9930]

Mon Liszt préféré, pour moi "une merveille" !!!

[@domeramon9930]

Valentina me transcende, je peux passer des heures à l'écouter en regardant ses mains tout simplement ! Le temps s’arrête ! Le PLAISIR rien que cela !!!!

[@laboucheduserpent-]

Ha oui l'un des meilleurs Liszt c'est clair, époustouflant.

[@hadricalifornia]

Oh man. Thank you So much for uploading this.

[@visualtraffic3794]

After this, the piano needed a cigarette!

[@frankhirshfield5685]

Cigar !

[@hadricalifornia]

Yess!!! Yes yes yes! Casual Totentanz. What more can you hope from KZbin. Such a shame for the second cut at the end. Very small detail, but notice the extra g at the end of the phrase at 10:59 :D awesome wink of humour and freedom where you don't expect it! I'll totally join in on the murder of the one disliker!

[@rywilk]

I would have loved to have been there for this =D

[@dlgrim0621]

Ge Val I'd think it would be great to hear You in person on any piano!Can't anyone sitdown and have some fun without bad remarks?Nutso's!

[@iw1105]

piano: now my life is completed.

[@ericastier1646]

I am a pianist and connaisseur and i realize these people who have zero prior exposure to piano classical music will be overwhelmed by such activity at the keyboard and will not be able to appreciate the music.

[@pepevega4850]

GENIA

[@ChrisWatch]

ikr. that second cut completely missed out on a beautiful build up. I feel sick now because of that but this "casual Totentanz." Really surprised me to say the least. Valentina is a fucking Beast!

[@acuriousergeorge]

Genius

[@TheHankster30]

That piano is still wondering what hit it.

[@celsotuzzolo]

i'd do anything to watch her playing from that close

[@mencken8]

Who does this? (Besides Lisitsa, I mean.) Phenomenal.

[@jemimalamb78]

Valentina...i am so sorry that you had to play on this piano...you made it sound good...

[@ericastier1646]

She did not have to, she chose that situation, she relishes it.

[@kalM856]

Igual a essa não existe

[@jannis11]

noIce

[@Ilheo1]

hahaha excelent pianist no metter temperature! But why hells advanced parts of music? I love totentanz, it would be complete....no missing parts

[@invisableobserver]

I can see why Val's son does not like Totentanz

[@ericastier1646]

Not sure what she is after to play such extreme Liszt piece on a street upright piano that does not have the resonance and coffer to render it and will have unequal tone and possibly on its last leg with surprise keys. It sure will develop her self confidence, but some will say it, this is not good for her technique.

[@hanaohanada4425]

I feel bad faith in this video.

[@Kinjutsuu]

much mistakes hehe

[@ldece627]

Hey, instead of reacting to your comment I thought it would be nice for you to see a comment you wrote 8 years ago to bring back some memories so here you go

[@ekrium]

@@ldece627 after 8 years there's still mistakes in the video?

[@ldece627]

@@ekrium ?

[@ekrium]

@@ldece627 its nice to see that real performances arent so perfect

[@ImOvervalued]

you should've made the piece easier
