Fr. Liszt : La Campanella - Grandes Etudes de Paganini - n°3 and n°4 / Wolfgang Weller, Piano

Описание: Wolfgang Weller plays 2 etudes from Liszt's famous "Grandes Etudes de Paganini (NG2 A173).
0:00 Nr. 3 gis-Moll (La Campanella) - Allegretto
6:23 Nr. 4 E-Dur - Vivo

Especially the first is a very known 'show piece' today, called "La Campanella".
Quoted from the Wikipedia page dedicated to this etude: "La campanella" (Italian for "The little bell") is the nickname given to the third of Franz Liszt's six Grandes études de Paganini, S. 141 (1851). It is in the key of G-sharp minor. This piece is a revision of an earlier version from 1838, the Études d'exécution transcendente d'après Paganini, S. 140. Its melody comes from the final movement of Niccolò Paganini's Violin Concerto No. 2 in B minor, where the tune was reinforced metaphorically by a 'little handbell'. This is portrayed by the top note jumps that need to be played within the timeframe of a 16th note."

The piece is marked 'only' allegretto and yet, today, it is played by most if not all pianist as a furious presto. Wolfgang Weller gives his video in this rendition on what he feels as being the 'tempo giusto' of these pieces. Since there is no MM from Liszt for these pieces, we're dependent on notation, Italian tempo indication and- important - the character of the piece.

Wolfgang plays a Steinway piano.
