    @Jim0734 What do you mean; where was Cziffra on his own?

    @tomekkobialka Cziffra was on his own – but what a place to be!

    @CziffraTheThird

    1. Look at the video info (many people fail at this point)
    2. Look to the right.
    3. Look at the two quavers; to the right it says: Buy “Valse Triste (VECSEY)”
    4. Realise that the composer is Vecsey.

    OR, on the first page of the video (not the title, the one after that), you can see in the upper right-hand corner: F. Vecsey – G. Cziffra.

    Problem solved! ;)

    Cziffra was held back from achieving his complete talent, by the pressures of concert touring. He had to practice with a silent piano to keep his hands strong, and that took up most of his time that otherwise he could have spent, like Lizst, improvising sweet original stuff. Cziffra’s improvisations were those of an athlete not a musician. I’m surprised I can’t find him on the youtube playing circus gallop. He would have done it mighty fine.

    You can stop MR CZIFFRA!

    His exaggerations, his extreme technique, all that he writes in the score is so exaggerated, it’s the reason there’s only one idiot who disliked it.

    @addeex1 Envious? What do you mean? I was just saying I find this kind of interpretation a little bit creepy. But never mind…

    @tingetbanusa I think someone is envious

    Sounds a little as though sibelius’ valse triste had been rewritten by a psychopat, imo…
