Deuxième année - Italie (S161) / Venezia e Napoli (S162)-While the first volume of Liszt?s Années de pèlerinage (?Pilgrim Years?) was inspired primarily by the landscape of Switzerland the creative impetus for the second volume was the art and literature of Italy. Edition Peters is proud to continue its acclaimed series of Liszt critical editions from world-renowned Liszt expert and concert pianist Leslie Howard with this new urtext edition of Années de pèlerinage Deuxième Année ? Italie. Containing an extensive critical commentary and introductory notes the edition (like its predecessor Suisse (EP72782)) also contains reproductions of the half-tint illustrations by Robert Kretschmer that appeared in the first edition. Also included in this prestige volume a must-have for any serious Liszt pianist is the supplementary volume Venezia e Napoli beautiful and ingenious revisions of earlier works based on Italian street music.

Par LISZT FRANZ. La genèse et la publication des deux premiers volumes des Années de pèlerinage de Liszt sont étroitement liées. À peine un an après leur retour de Suisse, Liszt et sa compagne, Marie d?Agoult, entreprennent en août 1837 un voyage en Italie qui durera plus de deux années. Si, dans le volume Suisse, le compositeur s?était principalement attaché à dépeindre en musique la nature, les paysages et l?histoire du pays, il transcrit dans la partie Italie des impressions provenant de la poésie (Pétrarque, Dante) et des arts plastiques (Raphaël, Michel-Ange). L?ensemble de sept pièces composées entre 1838 et 1849, qui s?achève sur son point culminant, la sonate dite Dante, a fait, avant sa publication en 1858, l?objet de multiples remaniements partiels. Le cahier Venezia e Napoli, paru trois ans plus tard sous forme d?un supplément, est disponible séparément sous la référence HN 985. Par ailleurs, la présente édition révisée prend pour la première fois en compte une copie manuscrite du n° 2 (copie destinée au graveur), comportant des corrections de la main de Liszt. Le pianiste suisse Francesco Piemontesi a pu être sollicité pour la réalisation des doigtés. / Date parution : 2022-02-03/ Recueil / Piano

(Version for piano solo) and other works. Supplementary Volume 15 of the New Liszt Edition contains both earlier versions of published works and also several works that remained as manuscript. The most extensive work in this volume is the earliest known draft of the Piano Concerto in A major (written in 1839 for solo piano). Not only does the draft give insight into the process of the work?s genesis, but it also holds its own as a work for piano solo. Additionally, the volume contains several shorter works, such as a piano transcription of Robert Schumann?s Lied Widmung, which shows how original Liszt?s interpretations were, and also two early drafts of the Zweite Elegie dedicated to Lina Ramann (a former pupil of Liszt?s and his first biographer). The latter have been published in facsimile. Supplementary Volume 15 features a detailed preface in German, English and Hungarian, which reveals valuable details on each work. The cloth-bound version also has critical notes in English.

Supplement 8 of the New Liszt Edition contains first versions of Hungarian Rhapsodies Nos 12-21 and two shorter Liszt pieces with a Hungarian connection. All works in the volume appear here for the first time in a scholarly edition. This version of the Hungarian Rhapsodies ensued in 1846-50 from Magyar dallok (Hungarian Songs) Nos 1-11, published in Supplement 7. Piece No. 13 is based on the Rákóczi March, which Liszt set on several occasions. It had been a vital encore piece since his first concert in Hungary in 1839. Inclusion in this volume of the first version of the piece known as the Mosonyi Funeral March (a forerunner of the much later No. 7 in the Hungarian HistoricalPortraits) is especially notable as its autograph manuscript only emerged recently. A detailed preface in Hungarian, English, and German, including new research results, numerous manuscript facsimiles, and critical notes, makes this volume of the New Liszt Edition an important publication of immense scholarly value. Along with the cloth-bound Complete Edition, a paperback version for practical use has also been published. This edition's contents are identical to those of the hardcover edition with the exception that the critical notes are not included.

Par LISZT FRANZ. A prolific composer and virtuoso pianist, Franz Liszt (1811-1886) was the most lionized musical personality of his time. His compositions for solo piano continue to be loved and admired by pianists and their audiences for their lush romanticism and technical fireworks. They remain among the most frequently performed works in the reportoire. This choice selection of Liszt piano works reveals the powers at this extraordinary composer's command./ Répertoire / Piano

Publié par Mez? Imre Instrument: Piano Série: New Liszt Edition Supplement 'B' Genre: Romantic Langue: Hungarian, English, German Pages: 220 pp Date du parution: 1983 The Technical Studies 1 is the opening volume of Supplements which completes New Liszt Edition with 11 volumes. Liszt's series of exercises designed to maintain or further perfect piano technique which has already attained the highest level. The Critical Notes make it possible to study, among other things, the most important discrepancies between the sources of the volume. The thematic Index provides an overview of the content of all three volumes of the Technical Studies.

New edition based on the composer's manuscript-This edition of the three concert études is the first and only for which the composer's autograph has been taken into consideration. This allows Liszt's popular Piano cycle to be seen in the most authentic form available today. No closer information has emerged about the origins of the études which appeared in 1849. The autograph which contains all three studies in complete form with elaborated notation and furnished with performance markings appeared in a catalogue in the mid-1930s. But after it was bought by the French pianist François Lang (1908-1944) there were doubts about its whereabouts for several decades. So even Volume I/2 of thecomplete New Liszt Edition published by Editio Musica Budapest in 1971 could rest only on the notation of the first printed editions. The new version edited by Adrienne Kaczmarczyk that appears here pays close heed to the points where knowledge of the manuscript calls for alteration and addition. The autograph also used as the engraver's copy confirms an earlier suspicion. The widely used subtitles (1. Il lamento 2. La leggerezza and 3. Un sospiro) were thought to be alien to Liszt's approach and are now known not to originate from the composer. They were presumably dreamed up by a Paris publisher.

Franz Liszt arrangea maintes ?uvres d?autres compositeurs pour son instrument de prédilection, privilégiant toutefois les extraits des ?uvres scéniques de son ami et beau-fils Richard Wagner.

Liszt traita à deux reprises le «Vaisseau Fantôme»: hormis la Ballade de Senta, il mit tout son génie pour transcrire au piano également le ch?ur des fileuses extrait du 2e acte («Bon rouet, gronde et bourdonne»).

Étincelant d?une brillance virtuose, son «ch?ur des fileuses» est resté jusqu?à aujourd?hui l?une de ses transcriptions les plus appréciées.

Pour notre édition Urtext, nous avons pu disposer entre autres de l?autographe de Weimar et des révisions de la main de Liszt provenant des archives de la maison d?édition Breitkopf and Härtel. / Partition /

Hungarian Fantasia S123-Performed by Neill Eisenstein piano Accompaniment: Stuttgart Symphony Orchestra Conductor: Emil Kahn Liszt transformed the whole concept of the concerto when he cast his A-major concerto in one single movement using the idea of thematic transformation. A poetical masterpiece both serene and glitteringly exciting which stands at the very pinnacle of Romantic piano literature. Liszt used his own Hungarian Rhapsody No. 14 as the basis for the Hungarian Fantasia the second piece featured on this MMO release. With its triumphal themes sparkling cadenzas and breathtaking finale this single-movement mini-concerto is a sparkling musical gem! A wonderful eminently accessiblepiece due to its relatively short length. Includes a high-quality printed music score and a compact disc containing a complete version with soloist in split-channel stereo (soloist on the right channel); then a second version in full stereo of the orchestral accompaniment minus the soloist.

Liszt Separate Editions are published with scholarly authenticity and are based on the New Liszt Edition. Their musical scores and presentation correspond to the complete edition yet their extent is far smaller and they cost much less than the larger volumes of the full set. Liszt Separate Editions provide the same quality as the complete edition while also fully meeting practical requirements.

Années de Pèlerinage Deuxième Année - Italie-Between 1837 39 Liszt was travelling through Italy with Marie d?Agoult. As was the case with the first volume of the Années de Pèlerinage Schweiz (1835/36) he once again recorded his travel impressions in musicalform. He devoted himself to subjects from literature (Petrarca Dante) and the visual arts (Raffael Michelangelo). Many years later Liszt reworked the pieces publishing them in 1858 as Années de Pèlerinage Zweites Jahr Italien.The central work in this volume is the large-scale so-called Dante Sonata (Après une Lecture de Dante see also single edition HN 981). The Sonetto 104 del Petrarca (also available as a single edition HN 982) isjust as popular. In 1861 Liszt published an appendix to Volume II Venezia e Napoli which is also available as a separate edition HN 985.

Années de Pelerinage-The New Liszt Edition (NLE) comprises ten series the works being grouped according to genre and scoring. Series I (Works for piano solo) was completed as a joint publication of EMB and Bärenreiter-Verlag Kassel by 1985. From 1986 on EMB continued to publish NLE alone completing Series II (Free arrangements and transcriptions for piano solo) by 2005. In publishing Series I and II priority was given to the final version of the works: of earlier versions only those were published in the appendix that differed significantly from the final form. In 2005 a series of 15 supplementary volumes was launched with the aim of publishing earlier versions of the solo piano works thatdiffer less substantially from the final form: mainly those published by Liszt himself but also some that remained in manuscript. In special cases more extensive fragments are also published in the supplementary volumes.
