Nur Wenigen ist bekannt,
dass Liszt einige seiner
Klavierstücke auch
für Violoncello mit
Klavierbegleitung
bearbeitet hatte, und
dass diese Version der
Werke noch zu Lebzeiten
des Komponisten in Druck
erschien. In diesem Band
nahm Ãrpád Pejtsik
zwei dieser Stücke,
die I. und II. Elegie
auf. Die anderen
Liszt-Kompositionen in
der Sammlung sind auch
ursprünglich
Klavierwerke: der
Bearbeiter ist beim Ave
Maria und Cantique
d'amour (Stücke aus
dem Zyklus Harmonies
poétiques et
religieuses) der
Liszt-Schüler Robert

Swert, der damals
Solocellist des Weimarer
Orchesters war, wurde die
in G-Dur transponierte
Violoncelloversion der
E-Dur Consolation, und
vonLothar Windsperger,
dem an der Wende zum 20.
Jahrhundert lebenden
deutschen Komponisten,
