Liszt: The complete music for solo piano, Vol. 36 - Excelsior!
Leslie Howard (piano)
CDA66995
All the works on this disc are believed to be first recordings. Much of Liszt’s music is out of print, or not yet published, and frequently missing from the existing catalogues. Various pieces of one sort or another, often alternative texts of known works, are still being unearthed. Most of the pieces in this selection are rather rare, several are unpublished, and some only recently published for the first time.
All of the music on this album is also available as part of the specially priced box set Liszt: Complete Piano Music: 'Almost any way you choose to look at it, this is a staggering achievement … the grand scope of this project gives us the chance, as listeners, to experience the almost incomprehensible breadth and depth of Liszt's imagination' (International Record Review).
