From the autumn
of 1864, Liszt accepted
the invitation of
Cardinal Gustav Adolf zu
Hohenlohe-Schillingsfü
rst almost every year to
spend a few days or weeks
at the Villa d'Este in
Tivoli near Rome. He
often received visitors
there from Rome besides
Liszt and his pupils the
liberal-minded, cultured
prelate also attracted
representatives of the
intellectual elite. This
extraordinary place not
only became Liszt's
favourite dwelling-place
in Italy but also
inspired him to write
several works for piano,
which he published in
1883 in the third volume
of Années de
pélerinage. One of
these is Les jeux d'eaux
á la Villa d'Este,
composed in 1877, which
would become one of the
most popularpieces by
Liszt. This revised
(2020) edition adopts the
score and the critical
report of the New Liszt
Edition (amending it, if
necessary). In addition,
it includes a preface in
German and English, that
explores the genesis of
the work on the basis of
current research, and
orients the reader in
issues of notation.This
publication is printed on
high-quality,
age-resistant paper that
is produced in an
environmentally-friendly,
climate-neutral manner
using renewable raw
materials.
