Oliver Triendl; Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin; Roland Kluttig - Emil von Sauer; Conrad Ansorge: Piano Concertos

Emil von Sauer and Conrad Ansorge had the privilege of studying under the legendary Franz Liszt, who preferred to be known as an advisor, rather than a teacher. Even so, their lessons with the world-famous composer/pianist influenced and developed both their individual styles and extraordinary abilities. This Capriccio recording presents two significant and unjustly forgotten piano concertos by these pupils of Liszt that reflect both their versatility and their deep understanding of musical form and structure.
