if yngwie malmsteen composed for piano

[Justin Ignaz Franz Bieber]

What are some piano works with lots of gratuitous fast show-off playing? Here's an example:

blows me away every time I hear it

What is that?

I wonder what scalloped keys would look like?

I've heard Beethoven's 5th PC played with more technical virtuosity than that. By far. Or check out Rachmaninov. Liszt...

[Justin Ignaz Franz Bieber]

What is that?

the sample? glenn gould playing beethoven's 2nd eroica variation. it's officially called 15 variations w/fugue in e flat, but it has the same theme as the 3rd symphony so it's informally known as the eroica variations. i don't remember which came first though.

i couldn't hear the clip, but anyways, it's probably a good thing yngwie doesn't compose for the piano. I don't think the results would be good, he should stick with the guitar 

[The Emperor]

Seriously??  Sounds to me like a Czerny-esque technical exercise played with the damper pedal depressed throughout...

Gratuitous showoff playing?  How about good ol' Franz Liszt and those "Transcendental" Etudes?

It's Gratutious and tasty i might add!

Here's some more Tatum, this time with video.  Watch how economical his technique is; not a wasted movement.

His technique is even more economical in the first clip.
