And talking of Liszt, here's a funny Liszt video

Thought I´d bump this thread as I really enjoyed the videos, and was looking for a place to share a great piece of piano music. Nothing humourous I´m afraid, but it is by the man himself, playing what is probably his best-known work :-

Rachmaninov is great. I spent quite a whole lot of time learning some of his piano sonatas and preludes. My favorite one is definitely his Prelude in G minor:

I was about to post a link to this myself - in the context of this thread the most fascinating thing is how Rachmaninoff himself breaks the opening chords, although they are not written as such, and he can clearly make the stretch!
