Ervin Nyiregyházi, piano - Liszt - Weihnachtsbaum No. 9: Abendglocken ('Evening Bells') Composer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franz_L... Composition: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weihnac...) Performer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ervin_N... Ervin Nyiregyházi was a direct pianistic descendant of Liszt and Beethoven, as he studied with: Erno Dohnányi, a pupil of Eugen d'Albert, a pupil of Franz Liszt, a pupil of Carl Czerny, a pupil of Ludwig van Beethoven Arnold Schoenberg wrote the following about Ervin Nyiregyházi: "...a pianist who appears to be something really quite extraordinary... I must say that I have never heard such a pianist before... What he plays is expression in the older sense of the word, nothing else; but such power of expression I have never heard before. You will disagree with his tempis as much as I did. You will also note that he often seems to give primacy to sharp contrasts at the expense of form, the latter appearing to get lost. I say appearing to; for then, in its own way, his music surprisingly regains its form, makes sense, establishes its own boundaries. The sound he brings out of the piano is unheard of... And such fullness of tone, achieved without ever becoming rough, I have never before encountered... as a whole it displays incredible novelty and persuasiveness. ...it is amazing what he plays and how he plays it".
