Whether macabre (Saint-Saëns), diabolical (Liszt), sad (Vecsey), transcendent (Ljapunov), Russian, Italian or French, these “voltiges” stand for absolute virtuosity. The artist Tristan Pfaff does not just string together one high-wire act, but several at once. He plays the selected pieces by Khachaturian, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov and many others in arrangements of great virtuoso predecessors: György Cziffra, Mikhail Pletnyov, Vladimir Horowitz and others. What sounds under the hands of the congenial pianist Tristan Pfaff amazes the listener in disbelief.
