from Liszt: The complete music for solo piano, Vol. 22 - The Beethoven Symphonies (CDA66671/5) 1 Adagio molto – Allegro con brio [12'27] 34 minutes 40 seconds 4 tracks2 Larghetto [11'50] 3 Scherzo: Allegro – Trio – Scherzo da capo [4'19] 4 Allegro molto [6'04] ‘This really is a pretty phenomenal achievement. I urge Lisztians to hear it, and even those who collect the proper versions of the Beethoven Symphonies—it is a marvellous way of hearing them afresh’ ... ‘The combination of devotion and diligence which both [Leslie Howard] and Liszt had lavished on getting to the heart of these inexhaustible works is staggering’ (Classic CD) ‘Howard's performances are, like nearly all in this series, consistently distinguished’ (Fanfare, USA) |
