To demonstrate that I have good music taste, and to educate y’all in good music taste, I’ve uploaded Totentanz! Yay Liszt! Yay Krystian!
I like Krystian’s version because he plays at this freaking breakneck pace. And I gotta tell you, Totentanz is a hard song already. Just look at the first page, where he tears through it without a single mistake. The version where you don’t play with the orchestra is even harder, because you don’t get a chance to rest. And sounds worse, because some things just sound better with the orchestra, but naturally, no orchestra would want to play Totentanz with you unless you can play the solo version.
Don’t listen to the sample on Wikipedia. Samples are for sissies, and whoever performed it must be a sissy too.
