And you don't have to pick the most famous performers. There are a lot of excellent performers out there. The "second-tier" performers are still fantastic musicians, and because no two people are exactly the same, each brings their own individual perspective and interpretation to the piece. I've been blown away by performers I've never heard of, more than a few times.

This is Liszt’s most famous composition ( maybe together with Liebestraum…) I remember the first time I heard it, and it was really one of the first pieces that got me into classical music, so I cherish it quite a bit. Glad you enjoyed it as well, and almost to 1k subs !!!

I enjoyed the performance too! Personally, I don't think it matters much which performance you pick, as long as you are able to enjoy or appreciate the piece. If you don't, perhaps another pianist's performance might change your mind, perhaps not. But being exposed to the different styles of playing of each performer offers an interesting, fresh perspective each time which probably helps us appreciate classical music a little better. =) Thanks for helping me to discover all these wonderful pianists through your videos.

There are 19 Hungarian Rhapsodies, the most popular being number 2 and number 6. Apart from checking out the most popular ones (for no 6 I recommend Martha Argerich) I would recommend numbers 12 and 14 those are my favourites. Would also recommend checking out some of Liszt’s operatic fantasies, specifically Reminiscences de Norma as I think you’ll like it most. One of Liszt’s best works imo. Thanks for the video.

I love No.12 very much, so underrated. No.14 is so much fun in the friska section, such an earworm. To these, I'd add No.10, which has so many glissandi passages (just Liszt having fun). No.15 is amazing but not sure why it fell out of popularity despite its heroic atmosphere. And Réminiscences de Norma is the most exquisite operatic transcription ever composed. The sonnambula fantasy remains very underrated because it has so many gorgeous melodies and rhythms.

Can you please react to the other side of Classical music? Claude Debussy is French and pretty much is the fountainhead of the impressionism movement in music. I know you reacted to him before, but I feel like your ears deserve the pleasure that is good Debussy recordings magic. I absolutely love all styles of Classical music. I am just really interested to see what you think of Classical music far-detached from angularity, and instead conjures up reveries from a realm less-explored. Debussy is a master at many things. One of them is colour. He composes music full of colour; piano colours, orchestral colours, even vocal colours created by singing wordless vocals. Another thing he was also a master at, and I am cutting this short for the sake of this comment not being too long, is Impressionistic imagery. He was also, as many impressionists in art at the time, a big fan of Japanese culture. Everyone in Europe, especially Paris (and Debussy), was deeply captivated; totally entranced after discovering Japanese culture. At the time (1850s), Japan just got out of a 200+ year isolation period. That meant that they developed quintessentially Japanese art (Ukiyo-e, for example), culture and beleifs and Europe was seeing what the Japanese were like for the first time. There is a famous picture taken by Satie of Debussy and Stravinsky in Debussy's home sitting next to eachother and on the wall behind them you can see Ukiyo-e prints; the Great Wave off Kanagawa and a Japanese Geisha under it. Debussy was absolutely awed by the sea and water, in general, and his music dialogue affectionately about that. He was also a lover of most foreign cultures, at large, as well. Some of his well known orchestral music explore these ideas. He was also deeply loved by the impressionists; poets and painter giants like Claude Monet, who even introduced him to another painter friend. Most music at the time was clear in a hard-edged way. Full of clear melodies and recognizable chunks. Impressionism arrives and all of a sudden, many of these clarities begin to be blurred and another kind of clarity comes through. The kind of clarity you would use to describe moonlight on water. Debussy wrote music like an Impressionist painter painted his canvas. He created his own tonal language, colours and values. Before him, nothing like that existed before. Totally worth a deeper look and the going on a never-ending journey of exploration of blurry dreams, flowing water and introspective peacefulness. If you are interested in pieces I feel like you should experience, just say. As always, love your reactions, and I am typing this before even watching this video. I love Classical from ornate to classy to dramatic. Mozart: Requiem in D Minor is literally one of my favourite things ever. I love it all, but goodness do I aslo love Debussy and this other side of Classical music.

@@GIDIREACTS @GIDI REACTS If you do a little research before listening your enjoyment will be significantly hightened. Okeedoke, so here is an amazing recording of: 1- La Mer (The Sea): kzread.info/dash/bejne/eIN318WDp5rPhJs.html or kzread.info/dash/bejne/hIB1q6yjh8ewgrQ.html if you favor older recordings. The second one has this slight hiss in background that somehow makes it evocative of the moodiness of the sea? The slight hiss almsot conveys wave crahes, I feel. 2- Pagodes (Pagodas): kzread.info/dash/bejne/hHWirNWHdMvAfsY.html I can recommend sooooo much Debussy music. Just try these out! This Pagodes recording is a homemade recording and it's extra slow, but to me, it unfolds beautifully and the phrasing... Ugh, the phrasing is gorgeous. I am still discovering what I like with Debussy and Impressionistic music recordings. Some Debussy pieces played a bit faster feel amazing, as well!

Rachmaninoff has great rendition of this piece but the sound quality unfortunately is not very good, thus many people won't like it. Although he did the best imo. And this performance is also astonishing. I've heard it for the first time couple of weeks ago and was pleasantly surprised. It's very very clear for the live performance and not rushed, unlike many other performances. Kudos to him. This interpretation is now third in my list, after Rachmaninoff and Cziffra (also very unique performance)

It's hard enough to play this piece, technically. To play it musically is another level. It's cool that you're beginning to understand the instruments enough that you can start to gauge what goes into a performance. You have the right idea, because a flawless technical performance can't truly be great if the character of the piece-the musical spirit-isn't there. I'm glad you enjoyed Liszt! Hungarian Rhapsody is an example of nationalist music, meaning that it uses ideas associated with a specific country or region. Liszt was Hungarian, so he was interested in making music inspired by his homeland. Another composer who wrote very technically challenging nationalist piano music was Isaac Albéniz, from Spain. I don't think you've reacted to him. Most people say that his masterpiece is a suite called Iberia, which does a good job of capturing the feeling of his home. It's hard to pick a favorite out of the suite (you should probably ask a pianist, which I'm not), but it's worth checking out.
