I'd Need A Closer Look At This Score To See How It Would Adapt To Piano Performance. My Best Is It Would

I'd need a closer look at this score to see how it would adapt to piano performance. My best is it would adapt very well. Perhaps for 4 (or 6) hands.

If freckles could be mapped onto staff paper...

The guy who posted this tagged it "creep". Having a little guy like this myself, I can tell you the one thing he's not is a creep. He's smart (look at those eyes), affectionate, and all things awesome. I wish I knew this little fellow's name.

I am not a fan of this work, but I love this performance by Cziffra. The playing is so clean, contained, and of a piece. This marvelous performance could turn me into a fan of the player, if not the work. Many thanks to @mhsteger also for the detail on the wristband.

mhsteger:

Georges Cziffra (born 5 November, 1921; died 15 January, 1994), here performing the Valse-Impromptu, composed some time between 1842 and 1852 by Franz Liszt (1811-1886)

I believe that this performance was recorded in the early 1960s.  One can easily see in this footage the leather wristband that Cziffra wore, as a remembrance of his time in labor camp, from 1950 to 1953, as punishment for trying to leave Hungary.

I seem to be retumbling a lot of broken pianos. But I'll make up for it, I promise. This Brewster, btw, looks like it was composed of reused pine from some pauper's coffin. I think we can safely say the tone here would have been inappropriate for anything save something extraordinarily percussive and minimal.

This is a graffito I can get behind. In front of, too. And is that a dilapidated piano on the ground below? An upright left too long beneath the raw elements? Or is it just a bench? I don't know.
