Liszt Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 - Frank Meijering (with original cadenza)

Описание: Franz Liszt has written some insane pieces, and Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 is one of the most (in)famous ones. The intro is really epic, the calm middle sections are beautiful, and the cadenza section is a great opportunity for the player to play whatever they want. I wrote my own cadenza since Liszt was asking for it ;) A cadenza is supposed to be a virtuosic section, but I didn't like the idea of writing something which is even more difficult than the rest of the piece (since everything is difficult enough for me already).

I made some mistakes in playing my own cadenza (kind of ironic), so if anyone wants to learn it themselves, use the sheet music instead: https://frankmeijering.wixsite.com/pi...

Forgive me for the mistakes please, this piece is so damn hard. I saw this as a technical and mental (trust me, being in hyper focus for 15 minutes is not easy) challenge. I spent 6 months learning everything by heart, 3 months writing the cadenza and 2 months practising intensively to get as many problems out of the way as possible. Let's say I'm happy it's over with.
