I really have nothing else to say right now, so I guess I'll provide a topic to maybe get some discussion going.

Favorite piano improvisations? Personally I have to go with Cziffra's, though I'm curious what everyone else has in mind.

czifraf.
I think you just accidentally invented the best way to insult Cziffra.

As someone who considers him as one of the 5-ish greatest pianists of the recorded era, I'm moderately amused.

On an unrelated note, favorite movements from Albeniz's Iberia? Personally:
Almería (no. 5 / Book II no. 2
Triana (no. 6 / Book II no. 3)
El Albaicín (no. 7 / Book III no. 1)
Lavapiés (no. 9 / Book III no. 3)
Eritaña (no. 12 / Book IV no. 3)

Yeah; the second to last post thing has developed something of a function. Instead of posting a random meme, you have to put content in both posts. Or embarrassingly cut yourself super thing between each post, which some people do on here.
