naww i think this is a horowitz AND liszt arrangment originally but he cuts out liszts version and plays horowitz's - i could be wrong :)
Well you see, ... ( 2 weeks ago by chemicalreaper)
Well you see, unlike you, I actually know something about music.
As a composer, I can tell you that the brilliant works of great composers (like Mendelssohn) shouldn't be rearranged by the likes of "Volodos" and others, because the originals will always be... well... original. And a thousand times better than any remakes.

i really dont like it
the real one is much better
sorry that's just my opinion, but you play good

'As a pianist' I can tell you that plenty of composers did not know how the idiomatics of instruments as well as they could. Performers like Horowitz knew how to improve the details-often so well that it takes a remarkably keen ear to even tell that they had altered anything.
However, in this case it is not supposed to be an 'improvement'. This is just a fun adaptation. If you believe that such a crap composition is sacrosant (and must not be used for a laugh), you must be kidding me.

By the way, the 'original' is not for organ, dumbass, so (composer or not) you just blew your own idiotic argument out of the water...

Unfortunately, it seems that you are another child left behind.
If you had any clue whatsoever how to read, you would have realised that my two comments "This arrangement really sucks compared to the original." and "The song sounds cooler on an organ, anyway." are two completely separate idealogical entities that are independent of each other.
That is, "the song sounds cooler on an organ than it does on a piano". But also that the "original version sounded better than the arrangement".
Henceforth, if you ... ( 1 week ago by chemicalreaper)
Henceforth, if you had half a brain cell in that thick head of yours, you would have been able to figure out that a) I like the original much better than this arrangement, b) I think it sounds better on an organ, and c) I think that the original composition, being played on an organ, sounds a lot better than this arrangement.
By the way, you ... ( 1 week ago by chemicalreaper)
By the way, you wrote "...that plenty of composers did not know how... as well as they could."
That's a misuse of an adverbial phrase, "dumbass".

"two completely separate idealogical entities that are independent of each other"
quite, you should be a politician. Pleasant as that sounds, it's more commonly referred to as 'hypocrisy'.
Yes, but the organ ... ( 1 week ago by cziffra1980)
Yes, but the organ version is NOT the original. You should have thought about that before you said:
"I can tell you that the brilliant works of great composers (like Mendelssohn) shouldn't be rearranged by the likes of "Volodos" and others, because the originals will always be... well... original. And a thousand times better than any remakes."
You can debate ... ( 1 week ago by cziffra1980)
You can debate grammar if you wish. However, the issue here was your transparent hypocrisy. If you want to pass judgement, start by applying your own standards about 'originals' to yourself. Alternatively, why not admit that you prefer the organ version to the original and that your following comment was a load of pretentious waffle that has no basis as either the absolute rule (that you claimed it to be)? Clearly this little sounbite doesn't even apply to your OWN preferences for this 'song'!
Yeah, OK. You know ... ( 1 week ago by chemicalreaper)
Yeah, OK. You know what, you're right. How utterly stupid of me to try and correct you, your Highness...
Yes, how dignified ... ( 1 week ago by cziffra1980)
Yes, how dignified of you to be so sarcastic after the ignorance of your comments has been exposed. YOU showed yourself up with those ludicrous conflicting statements- so don't shoot the messenger. Next time you might want to stop and think, before you start trying to tell everyone the rules of music.

you appear to have the ugliness all right, certainly in your shallowness and ability to deride someone because of their looks.
There are some really mean and nasty souls here in YouTube sometimes..
