Paderewski plays Liszt Hungarian Rhapsody no. 2 - Lassan (1922 & 1936)

....................supreme nonchalance.........."the grand manner of playing is very a simply a grand manner" Moriz Rosenthal (How could one disagree?) "I'm amazed, his playing is like a Hungarian dance, it has so much of a dance in it." Yes, it seems almost danceable - or at least Paderewski hasn't forgotten the dance connection of these rhythms. Lassan (Hungarian for slowly) is the slow section of the csárdás, a Hungarian folk dance, or of most of Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsodies, which take their form from this dance. (Chopin said that some played the mazurkas well but Poles played them best, understanding the rhythm of the dance.) (0:01) Ignace Jan Paderewski (1860-1941), piano. Recorded on June 26, 1922. New York: RCA Victor. No.74805/74806 (5:03) Ignace Jan Paderewski, piano. From "Moonlight Sonata", USA 1936. In 1936, Paderewski consented to appear in a film, presenting his art on the screen. This proposal had come at a time when Paderewski did not wish to appear in public. However, the film project did proceed and the selected film script was rather an opportunity to feature Paderewski. Horowitz called Paderewski 'noble', and you can see why when you hear his playing here...
