An Untypical Celebratory New York City Walk / with György Cziffra *XI.5.1921

After reading on that afternoon once more about the life of challenges, tragic, resilience, and suffering which was that of pianist György Cziffra, I decided to do what I have never done in my long athletic life — listen to music during athletic activities. It is my deep conviction that music needs utmost attention, and that the body at work needs utmost attention just the same, for which reason I always opt for doing both separately. That afternoon, though, I wanted to run with Cziffra on his birthdate, and listen to some of the music moments which were in part his direct contribution to music, as they pour from his life of long endurance into his interpretations.

Listening to his liveliness made it a fairly slow-pace walk.
