    Klaviermusik (solo) Vol.15
    These 'songs without words' represent a great proportion of the many such transcriptions that Liszt made. Neglecting earlier versions and simplified versions they represent all of Liszt's works in this genre relating to these seven composers, and are complemented by the numerous transcriptions of Schubert songs, of six Chopin songs, of many of Liszt's own songs, and of a small number of single songs by various composers from Alyabiev to Wielhorsky, bringing the total to well over 150.

    Klaviermusik (Solo) Vol.44
    First to allay fears of any duplication of material with Leslie Howard's previous release of Liszt's transcriptions of the Beethoven symphonies (CDA66671/5): these early transcriptions were made more than twenty years before their revisions, and Liszt's approach was originally even more demanding upon the performer. His earlier thoughts emerge as more dramatic and present many different solutions to the problems of faithfully transcribing great masterpieces.

    Klaviermusik (solo) Vol.09
    Writers on Liszt are unanimous in their verdict upon the Sonata in B minor: it is Liszt's greatest piano work, if not indeed his finest composition. It is also one of the few important Liszt works to be ostensibly free of any kind of programme or external reference, although, as Alfred Brendel and others have contended, a case can be made out for relating the structure and content of the piece to Goethe's Faust.

    Klaviermusik (solo) Vol.03
    This third release in the series of Liszt's complete piano music contains a mixture of the known and the unknown and comprises some of Liszt's forays into larger forms (others are the Sonata, the Scherzo and March and the transcriptions). The first obvious feature is that Liszt never repeated a formal structure - and this applies equally well to the shorter piano works, and certainly to the orchestral, choral and chamber music.

    Klaviermusik (solo) Vol.36
    All the works on this disc are believed to be first recordings. Much of Liszt's music is out of print, or not yet published, and frequently missing from the existing catalogues. Various pieces of one sort or another, often alternative texts of known works, are still being unearthed. Most of the pieces in this selection are rather rare, several are unpublished, and some only recently published for the first time.

    The Two Pigeons/Dante Sonata
    Jonathan Higgins (Piano) // "Lambert's masterly transcription of Liszt's Dante Sonata is a tour de force of romantic hyperbole ... as it swings between gloomy intensity and sweet celestial romanticism ... played with great conviction and ardour. (Both) scores are played with finesse, colour and commitment. The recording is excellent. Recommended." (Gramophone)

    Klaviermusik (solo) Vol.50
    Leslie Howard joins Liszt on what will be their penultimate trip to the opera. Some of Liszt's most virtuosic transcriptions from his years of fame as the world's greatest pianist (he was to retire from the professional stage in 1848) are here, including the rarely recorded transcription of the 'William Tell' Overture - a stunning warhorse with which Liszt used to end his concerts throughout the 1840s.

    Klaviermusik (solo) Vol.23
    Paul Coletti (Viola) // Liszt's staunch friendship and support for Berlioz was reflected in many practical ways - from his piano transcription of the Symphonie fantastique in 1834 to the Berlioz week in Weimar in 1855, in several smaller transcriptions and the arrangements of Harold en Italie, and in reviews and articles, especially the lengthy document Berlioz und seine 'Harold-Symphonie', Liszt tried to popularize Berlioz's works, which were widely held to be bizarre and intractable.

    Klaviermusik (solo) Vol.18
    Whilst Liszt's piano music derived from music for plays is a much smaller body of work than his catalogue of operatic pieces, the approach in his methods of composition, elaboration and transcription remains broadly the same. As far as present Liszt scholarship permits one ever to be categorical, this recording contains all of Liszt's works in this genre.

    Klaviermusik (solo) Vol.12
    Other volumes in this series explore the late waltzes, three of the larger sets of pieces (Via Crucis, Christmas Tree and the Chorales) and the single character pieces of the last period of Liszt's life, and still to come are some of the late transcriptions, the last Rhapsodies and the other late dances and marches. The present programme comprises the remaining sets of pieces (not cycles, however many times they may have been so described) and two other rarities from the 1880s.
