VIDEO: Vittorio Monti's Czardas
on: August 01, 2011, 07:45:38 AM
Hi everyone !

Here is my rendition of Monti's Czardas (did you know you can find a transcription of this gem on IMSLP ?)

Hope you enjoy !



PS: I didn't know whether to put this one in the "improvisation" part (I thought it is too close to the original to be there).

Bravo! I like it very much! Very nostalgic, very sentimental, very Hungarian!

Wonderful! Please keep posting! :)

Is this based on the same folk song as Liszt's 2nd Rhapsody?

Hum... I don't think so... but it is still rhapsodic and Hungarian  :)
The style is nearer from Brahms' 4th Hungarian dance, for instance...
