Need to know what piece of music this is!

on: May 04, 2005, 07:29:24 PM

There is a documentary film (most people in here probably know it) called "the Art of Piano". It portrays some of the great pianists of the 20th century.

It is in two parts. Each part has a title sequence with a faceless pianist (not one of the portrayed) playing a short piece, but it does not say what the titles or composers of these pieces are.
One of the two pieces is a Liszt etude, but what about the other? It is modern, very rythmic, sounds quite a bit like Prokofiev or Bartok, but I haven´t been able to find it anywhere.
Can anybody help??
