Although I have not been a friend of playing the beginning that slowly- you have convinced me that it is possible. You are a real artist. I get shivers down my back when I hear this piece played like that.. Really. Fantastic work! :) Thanks for posting this.

My guess is that the file is way larger than all other because of the duration of the piece, and people simply didn't take time to download. It is worth it, tough.

i see where you are coming from, but it only took about 2 mins to download and i dont have a super fast connection. still, i really enjoyed it and have listened to it a few times.

this is high-class performing. i know that it is hard to do this at the first performance on stage but i would like if perhaps in some places you would think more at the large phrase (i don't know if i am very clear but i don't speak english that good) wich i know it is difficult because you have to concentrate at the damn many notes liszt wrote :). it seems to me like sometimes (especially in the exposition) you do not seem to know when the phrase is going to end, and keep adding more motifs.

but don't get me wrong, i think you played it geat. it was brilliant but also deep and full of meanings. did you read the divine comedy?

wich is your favourite interpreter of this work?

Thank's alot.
Yes, I've read the divine comedy of Dante.
I don't have the favourite interpreter of this piece. But before I started this piece and during studying mostly I used to listen Lazar Berman (but maybe it's just for subjective reasons: cause I've met him before his death a few times in masterclasses)
