    Klaviermusik (solo) Vol.57
    Phew! We've made it! It's all over!

The series has taken almost 14 years to record. There are 1377 tracks altogether, with a total duration of over 117 hours - that is nearly five days' continuous playing time.

    Klaviermusik (solo) Vol.54
    This is the sixth and final instalment of Leslie Howard's thorough survey of Liszt's opera paraphrases and transcriptions. The series now includes all the significant versions of every such work he composed. There are some real rarities, here including three complete works, never published by Liszt, which our pianist has prepared from the manuscripts. Also present is the legendary Tannhäuser Overture transcription - one of the most monumental of all piano works.

    Klaviermusik (solo) Vol.53b
    Budapest Symphony Orchestra - Karl Anton Rickenbacher (Dir) // This set and its companion (CDA67401/2) are perhaps the most important releases in Leslie Howard's complete survey of Liszt's piano music. In addition to such well known works as the mature Piano Concertos (two of the most popular works in the nineteenth-century Romantic repertoire) and the other lesser known but familiar pieces, several items here receive their first recordings.

    Romantic Piano Concerto Vol.24
    Orquestra Gulbenkian - Martyn Brabbins (Dir) // For Volume 24 of 'The Romantic Piano Concerto' Hyperion went to Portugal to celebrate one of the country's greatest musical sons. José Vianna da Motta, if he is remembered at all, is primarily known as a very fine pianist. He was one of Liszt's last pupils, became a friend of Busoni, and left a small body of very impressive 78rpm recordings.

    Klaviermusik (Solo) Vol.55
    As the Liszt series draws to a close we turn once again to the many alternative thoughts which the composer had on so much of his output. Though many pieces here are the initial versions, much of beauty was often discarded in Liszt's later revisions and these pieces are fascinating as a trace of the creative thought process.

    Klaviermusik (solo) Vol.30
    This third gathering of Liszt's many piano works based upon operas is largely related to operas which remain in the modern mainstream repertoire, yet includes a number of rarities as far as Liszt's pieces are concerned. As in the previous offerings under the aegis of "Liszt at the Opera", the works range from assiduous bar-for-bar transcriptions to the most elaborate and original fantasies.

    Klaviermusik (Solo) Vol.29
    For our present purposes we may note that Liszt made no hard and fast distinction between 'genuine' Hungarian folksong and other music which he heard the gypsies play, he was largely unaware of the names and texts of the songs he employed, and on occasion he was unaware that his chosen melody was actually the product of another Hungarian composer. But what remains clear is that Liszt's avowed intention of celebrating the music of his native land is copiously accomplished in both sets of pieces.

    Klaviermusik (solo) Vol.48
    And still they come! Liszt Volume 48 is fundamentally about the Paganini Studies and in particular features the impossibly difficult 1838 first versions of what became the Grandes Études de Paganini. Paganini's violin virtuosity was the primary catalyst for Liszt's quest to explore the limits of pianistic virtuosity, and these works, along with the 12 Transcendental Studies, are thus his definitive statements on piano technique.

    Sämtliche Lieder Vol.2
    Julius Drake (Piano) // The songs recorded here encompass thirty years of Liszt's life, with texts in German, French and Italian, and contain many examples of the hidden beauties of this undervalued and little-known strand of the composer's works.
