Liszt: Piano Concertos Nos. 1 & 2; Totentanz
Franz Liszt, Oliver von Dohnanyi, ...

Naxos, 1994

This is an excellent recording for the price

+ Solid recording

I also own this piece played by the more famous Misha Dichter, Andre Previn conducting, and the Pittsburgh Symphony orchestra. In all honesty there is nothing to choose between the two of them.

The Angelic Liszt

+ Fulfilling

Emanuel Ax prefers to give us the beauties of Liszt in these concertos and the piano sonata. He forgoes the usual pyrotechnics and devilry for a more sensitive reading. While some may prefer the demonic Liszt, others will appreciate Ax's beauty of line wedded to pianistic virtuosity. A lovely ...

Masur - Champion of Liszt

+ Masur still the greatest Lisztian all these years later
+ From a music lover, not a critic

Before he became the embattled leader of the New York Philharmonic, Kurt Masur made a name for himself by making brilliant recordings with the Gewandhaus-Orchester Leipzig, these Liszt Orchestral Works foremost among them. It is delightful to have these recordings in print again, and for them all ...

vintage arrau

Approximately half of this Archipel disc includes three selections available on a Sony disc: Hungarian Fantasy for piano & orchestra & Hungarian Rhapsodies no. 9 & 13 (which is misidentified as no.11 on the Archipel disc). In addition, this release includes a 1935 version of the first Liszt ...

BBC Legends, 2002

EMBARRASSMENT OF RICHES

A belated and overdue interest in Ogdon's playing has prompted me to get these Liszt performances. I already own performances of both concertos by Richter and Cziffra, and of the first by Michelangeli. The piano technique of all these players is to all intents and purposes infinite and the composer ...

MacDowell: Piano Concerto No.2/Liszt: Piano Concertos No.1 & No.2
Franz Liszt, Edward MacDowell, ...

Telarc, 1996

Exceptional Performance

This is a great recording as well as rendition of MacDowell/Liszt Piano Concerti. Andre gives a great interpretation of Liszt and the Dallas Symphony is brilliant at best.

BBC Legends, 2000

A showstopper

This is a real example of what documentary recordings can yield to posterity. While I've always found the studio versions by these same artists a bit overrated, this live version--recorded a few days prior to the Philips session (now on "Philips 50") is the real thing. Comparing the two, one gets ...

Liszt: Three Piano Concertos; Totentanz
Franz Liszt, Paul Freeman, ...

MSR Classics, 2005

In a long creative lifetime of at least 65 years (he was a published composer by the age of 11), Franz Liszt wrote 15 or 16 works for piano and orchestra but only three real concertos; improbably enough, they are, along with the Totentanz, all dated 1849. Every aspiring virtuoso of the day was grinding out show-off concertos so it should not be surprising that the greatest virtuoso of the century ...
  
  











  



  
Liszt: Piano Concertos Nos. 1 & 2
Liszt, Arrau, ...

Eloquence, 1999

Beautiful, powerful, passionate.

Claudio Arrau's interpretation of these works by Liszt is powerful enough to storm the ramparts of heaven and celestial enough to draw heaven to earth. The sound quality of this CD is superb. Arrau's music is something to treasure, often.
