I think the uncertain word at 7:28 is "camarero" = "waiter" in Spanish. Any suggestions for the other one? Edit: The other is "straight-jacket." Thanks to Tony Mostrom and his sharp ears.

You're right: "a camarero in a straight jacket."

My thanks to you for posting as well. Nyiergyhazi was a remarkable man and musician.

Thank you for posting. Anything additional that we learn about this man is a bonus and so important. His recordings may be faded glory... but how astonishingly glorious must he have been. One of the greatest of all time.

10:18 very interesting use of pedal, as written in anton rubinstein's pedal book " vibrato pedal"

Thank you so much for uploading such gifts.

I use the score to embroider my libido, I don't have a good time in the bedroom I have a good time on the stage wow! Thank you you for introducing me to this great pianist who I honestly had never heard of I love his playing

dang, this is a treasure

A beautiful human being and wish I could have known him

7:35. "I use a score to embroider my libido". - great line - and true!

His voice was more high pitched than I expected. I expected a booming baritone voice.

Like Abraham Lincoln.

1:30 I can't believe that a person with blood on the fingers playing Blanchet produces such nuances on the piano. Honestly, he is one kind of person I would not have liked to meet I think. He seems dangerously unpredictable, which can be sometimes good, but having extreme tendencies on a regular basis must lead to a stressful life.

Yes, surely stressful. His delicate humour is what impressed me most, beside his pianism. For that reason I'd like to have met him.

It’s not Nyiregyhazi playing this waltz here. The hands look latino so it could have been his friend, Ricardo Hernandez. He surely was present during the recording of these interviews, I feel like otherwise Nyiregyhazi wouldn’t have agreed to be interviewed.

I heard the truest wagnerian aesthetics from his Liszt, and now I see him playing Walsung.

thank you for upload--i know Lost Genius;" i had no idea what he looked like or sounded like at the end--he had a good woman with him at the end, that and drink made it possible for him not to hear how awful he was--i'm glad to finally hear it--i know people who came to the grotesque san francisco final recital--he was author of his own lostness: drink always ends in self pity; drink reveals what you always were even when you were amazing hot stuff at 15

Not sure about the artistry... he's all but humble, everything appears very much self-oriented. He should have been just a composer, not an interpreter.

Wagner Tristan.

I didn't quite follow the discussion that ended with the mention of Gregor Benko. Was he complaining about Benko for something?

@ferguscullen8451

3 ай бұрын

Since he plays the piano for his own enjoyment, he sometimes likes to depart from what the composer has written. So he is annoyed when Benko tells him to stick to the score. I hope this answers your question?

Talk about 'self absorbed.' It wears thin after 5 minutes. Like his playing. Is there anything this man talks about other than himself?

Sleazy Hungarian 'chosen'. I dare say it as a Hungarian. Even his voice is a turn off. Classic music scene had several of these. Since then the scene has become more varied- all for the better!
