12 Etudes Op. 6

Twelve Etudes Op. 6

Liszt first composed these etudes at 14 years old in the year 1825. Just 25 years later, after being revised repeatedly, they appeared under the title of Transcendental Etudes (12 Études dexécution transcendante).

This edition has found a place among the renewed publications in our Music Lesson series, and it features revised fingerings, performer’s notes, and a preface all written by pianist Kornél Zempléni. He believed that Liszt’s Op. 6 serves as the ideal introduction into the technique and musical elements needed for students to successfully study the Transcendental Etudes. Regarding the 12 Etudes for Piano, Zempléni had this to say: “With this publication we hope to contribute something both to the advancement of the young pianist and to the increased appreciation of Liszt’s art.”

Liszt’s 12 Etudes has been renumbered as his Op. 6 according to the most recent research, but in terms of content this publication corresponds with the volume which was formerly labeled as his Op. 1.

Estudios trascendentales

Liszt’s “Transcendental Studies” of 1852 are without doubt among the triumphs of virtuoso piano music, and their visionary language and poetic expression make them a milestone of the romantic age. This set of twelve études represents the results of the composer’s own revision of a collection already published in 1827 and 1839. Accordingly, the principal source for our edition was a printed copy of the earlier version with myriad changes in the composer’s hand. Each of these pieces, including the famous “Harmonies du soir” and “Mazeppa”, bears its own title and has entered the concert repertoire less as an étude than as a tone-poem with its own distinctive flavour.

Sinfonías de Beethoven Nos. 1 – 5 transcritas para piano

Mon, 17 Jul 2023 21:01:30 +0000

Beethoven Symphonies Nos. 1-5 Transcribed for Solo Piano

In 1843, Franz Liszt made the handsome gesture of absorbing the costs for a monument to Beethoven in Bonn. The spiritual affinity he felt for Beethoven also moved this great piano virtuoso to pay an even finer tribute, a superlative set of piano transcriptions of the master’s nine symphonies. This volume contains the first five of these works, reproduced from the original plates authorized by Liszt himself.
Liszt’s brilliant transcriptions enabled nineteenth-century audiences and amateur pianists to become acquainted with Beethoven’s works even when no orchestras were available. Indeed, the great pianist’s capacity for translating orchestral effects into pianistic terms was nothing short of astonishing.
Today, through Liszt’s remarkable ability to re-create orchestral fabric at the keyboard, pianists are able to experience all the beauty, drama, and poetry pervading these five great works. A memorable tribute from one musical genius to another, these compositions will delight pianists and music lovers alike.

Sonata para piano en H menor

Webmaster — Wed, 15 Dec 2021 19:41:37 +0000

Following the revision of the facsimile of the Piano Sonata in b minor (HN 3227), Henle is now proud to present the corresponding new Urtext edition. With the help of the splendid facsimile reproduction we were able to analyse several passages in the autograph more reliably; in addition the editor Ernst Herttrich not only consulted the first edition but also a copy of a student of Liszt’s, in which the composer had made entries in his own hand. Clara Schumann reacted with a lack of understanding when Liszt sent the sonata: “It is only blind noise – not a single healthy thought, everything confused.” Today we view this differently. The new edition of this key piano work is further enhanced by the sophisticated fingerings supplied by the piano titan Marc-André Hamelin.

Piano Transcriptions from Wagner’s Operas

Complete Piano Transcriptions from Wagner’s Operas

La reputación de Liszt como el pianista supremo del siglo XIX, y posiblemente de todos los tiempos, ha eclipsado muchos de sus otros logros. Es menos conocido, por ejemplo, que Liszt defendió la música de otros compositores y transcribió sus obras para piano. Entre su vasta producción en esta área se encuentran notables transcripciones de la Sinfonía Pastoral de Beethoven, los lieder de Schubert, la Obertura de Rossini a Guillermo Tell y extractos de la Sinfonía Fantástica de Berlioz. Después del retiro de Liszt de los escenarios de conciertos en 1847, su atención se centró cada vez más en la composición. Su admiración por la música de Richard Wagner lo llevó a promover las óperas de Wagner, así como a componer transcripciones para piano de muchas de ellas. El presente volumen presenta las quince de estas composiciones, que datan de 1848 a 1882. Llenas de melodía familiar y pianismo brillante, son transformaciones magistrales de los grandes temas de ópera de Wagner en música inolvidable para piano. Las composiciones incluyeron Fantasía sobre temas de Rienzi; Coro giratorio de El holandés errante; Obertura a Tannhäuser; Recitativo y Romance «Evening Star» de Tannhäuser; tres piezas más de Tannhäuser y Lohengrin; Coro de Peregrinos de Tannhäuser; Liebestod de Isolda de Tristán e Isolda; «Am Stillen Herd» de Die Meistersinger; Valhalla de Der Ring des Nibelungren; y Marcha Solemne al Santo Grial de Parsifal. Esta edición de Dover, publicada bajo los auspicios de The American Liszt Society, reproduce las piezas de una rara edición crítica rusa de la obra de Liszt. El texto ruso en la página de música ha sido traducido al inglés especialmente para esta edición, mientras que el estudioso de Liszt Charles Suttoni ha brindado una introducción perspicaz que analiza la transcripción de Liszt en general y la de la música de Wagner en particular. Estas partituras no están fácilmente disponibles en ninguna otra serie de un volumen. Esta edición de Dover los reúne en un conveniente formato de bajo costo para estudiantes, pianistas, amantes de la música, todos los que se deleitan con las brillantes traducciones idiomáticas del lenguaje orquestal al del piano.

Après une Lecture de Dante – Fantasia quasi Sonata

Webmaster — Wed, 15 Dec 2021 20:30:51 +0000

Often referred to by pianists as the “Dante Sonata”, it is the closing piece in the second volume of the “Années de Pèlerinage” (HN 174) and is now finally available as a single edition. In 1839, while under the spell of Dante’s “Divine Comedy”, Liszt had begun work on a “fragment dantesque”. He later incorporated the work in revised form into the volume “Italy” of his “Années de Pèlerinage”.
The single-movement sonata is based on the Canto “Inferno” in Dante’s poem. It describes the wild ride of the soul into hell in an effective manner, finally closing with several forgiving chords in a kind of transfiguration – one of the best examples of Liszt’s technical ingenuity and sound artistry.
