Liszt's second Mephisto Waltz was originally composed for piano solo sometime between 1878 and 1881. It was orchestrated shortly thereafter and performed in this setting on May 9, 1881 in Budapest, with the orchestra conducted by S. Erkel. The score reproduced here was originally issued by Breitkopf & H rtel of Leipzig in 1913 as part of the tenth volume of "Franz Liszt: Musikalische Werke," edited principally by Berthold Kellermann.

At least one of the two works inspired by Nikolaus Lenau's poem on the familiar Faust legend may have been originally composed for piano and later orchestrated . The first, "Der n chliche Zug" is a march-like work not often performed while the second, entitled "Der Tanz in der Dorfschenke" is better known as the "Mephisto Waltz No. 1." This popular work was first heard for orchestra on March 3, 1861 with the composer conducting the Weimar Hofkapelle. The score reproduced here was originally issued by Breitkopf & H rtel of Leipzig in 1913 as part of the tenth volume of "Franz Liszt: Musikalische Werke," edited principally by Berthold Kellermann.

The last work in the revolutionary series of thirteen tone poems Liszt composed for orchestra, "Von der Wiege bis zum Grabe" (From the Cradle to the Grave) was composed in 1881-82 - late in the composer's life. The three movement work, dedicated to Count G za Zichy, was only given its premiere posthumously in 1927. This new study score is a digitally-restored reissue of the score edited by Berthold Kellermann in the tenth volume of the Liszt-Stiftung edition, published in 1913.
