HIGHLIGHT 1
 
[Solo Piano]
Paraphrase by Cziffra
A supervirtuoso arrangement!

Energetic and exhilarating.
Breathtaking technique, at breakneck speed.
Perfectly executed!

HIGHLIGHT 2
 
[Piano Duet (Four Hands)]

Lively arrangement and tight performance. 
Very nice texturing with twinkly bits keeping up the momentum of the piece.
 Captures the mood of the polka perfectly.
