F. Liszt - H-Moll Sonate/Petrarca So

Angela Hewitt�s notes for this important new album describe a teenager�s moment of revelation when she first came to appreciate the epic masterpiece that is the Liszt Piano Sonata. Here we have a heart-felt recording where this palpable sense of wonder is manifest alongside Hewitt�s enthralling technical facility at the keyboard.The programme is completed by the second half of Liszt�s dazzling second Annee de p�lerinage collection: the three Petrarch Sonnets and the noble Dante Sonata, the latter composed as a fund-raiser for the Bonn Beethoven monument in 1839.
