Description

Franz Liszt was not only a brilliant and innovative composer and the greatest piano virtuoso of the 19th century; he was also a generous populariser of other composers’ music. One of his primary methods was through his superb piano transcriptions of great orchestral, operatic and other pieces. These transcriptions made it possible for people to enjoy music to which they otherwise had no access to. This collection offers a memorable feast of pianistic virtuosity sure to delight pianists, and admirers of Liszt.
