Zoltán Kocsis plays Liszt: Grosses Konzertsolo,

I’ve uploaded this bad boy before with a horrid Audacity noise reduction which jarringly cut off like 95% of sustained notes. In hindsight, it kind of ruined the whole piece, so: I hereby bring to you the “untampered version“ of the same thing: Live in 1986. 05. 20 at MTA Congress Hall, with scrolling score. Sorry for the background noise, but at least you can enjoy the performance of this grossly underplayed masterwork better. The only three notable pianists who played the GK (edit: besides Kocsis, naturally) so far are Ogdon and Dacic: both of whom are prone to garbling passages beyond recognition and Clidat (the ill-appropriately called “Madame Liszt“), who I always find technically lacklustre and musically insipid.
