Dominic Cheli - Franz Liszt: Complete Piano Music, Vol. 59 - Schubert Transcriptons

As a boy during the years 1822�23 Liszt studied in Vienna with Czerny and Salieri, at the same time as Schubert was winning his reputation as a leading composer in the city. Many years later Liszt did much to introduce Schubert�s music to a wider audience, not least through his prodigious transcriptions. In the case of the Three Marches and M�lodies hongroises, Liszt selected music originally written for piano duet, but in Soir�es de Vienne, a set of nine pieces of which some were to remain prominent in Liszt�s concert repertoire, he fashioned a sequence of truly memorable valse-caprices.
