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.
