Liszt: 2. Klavierkonzert ∙ hr-Sinfonieorchester ∙ Francesco Piemontesi ∙ Marek Janowski 

Some of Liszt’s cadences in this work are simply phenomenal. His harmonies are just superb!

Very fine pianist, and a great orchestra. Remarkable performance!

Beautifully passionate - completely wonderful Liszt!

You know a pianist is in the upper echelon when even their dramatic pauses are virtuosic. Piemontesi is a poet.

Romantic performance of this romantic masterpiece. The scintillating high tone of solo piano sounds really charming. Awesome pianist!

a formidable performance !!!!!! pianist and orchestra. I think this orchestra is one of the top orchestras in Europe at the moment

I have come to like Liszt's Second Concerto as much as his First, and this performance is a fine realization of it.

Tremendous the audience should have given him a standing ovation !!!!!

My first time listening to this. WOW. Fantastic piece. Piemontesi is fantastic.

Meine erste Klassik-Musik vor 50 Jahren .....das war Beethoven 3te, Dvorak 9te und Liszt die 2 Klavierkonzerte ,..ich habe bis heute beide im Gehörgang, weil durchgehört ohne Ende .....mit Sv Richter London Phil K.Kondrashin 1962

Bel pianismo, molto musicale,bel suono,bravo!!!

Real massive power in the performance.

8:00 the cello solo

Wow! My favorite Liszt interpreter always was Matsuev until I found this one. Now Piemontesi shows me new ways of listening to this masterpiece. Superb!

This work stands tall as the Schumann and Grieg concertos. I love it to death.

Also, I’m impressed at the lightning fast reflexes of the violinist who picks up Janowski’s spectacles at 21:30. That shows the respect he must have from his players!

Glad to see the 2nd receiving more notice. For me,it is a better attention holder than the 1st. Really appreciated the pianist's total commitment. Bravo!

8:30 so beautiful

Divin! 💖

A wonderful performance of an amazing work.

Grande pianista. Raffinatissimo. Erede di Cortot e del suo impareggiabile tocco

Piemontesi setzt beste Traditionen fort. Außerdem: exzellente Kameraführung!

¡Qué belleza de interpretación orquestal y de piano!

Never heard a better Liszt pc 2 - nor for that matter a better K 503 (Mozart pc 25 on a new CD, not the performance on RU-vid). These both performances are even better than Brendel's own (Piemontesi's tutor)

20:51 amazing 😍

Ottima interpretazione!

I see where Joe Hisaishi got his inspiration for howls moving castle.

12:26 19:30

Благодарю за чудесный концерт Франкфуртский оркестр! И комментарии хорошие - слушатели объясняют зачем человеку уши.

Plu. Mm

molto ispirato non c'è che dire

He plays this concerto well, and has a great orchestra to make this an excellent performance. But I wonder why he takes on playing the work as it appears to cause him great pain. And he attacks the piano as if it is an adversary that needs to be tamed, unlike Miss Wang whom in her performances, caresses the piano, as a loving and loved collaborator in producing the music - a pity she has no performance of this work on RU-vid, I'm not suggesting it would be musically superior to the performance here, but it would be better in that she enjoys sharing her journey with the piano.with us.
